become one of the world's superpowers to combat the increasing number of monsters and dungeons a cube Training Center was established here heroes from all over the world would gather facing intense competitions in this school a main character destined to Save the world would emerge along with Rivals contesting him this was the overview of the world however this world wasn't created by God it was created by an author named Kim hajin there was a problem the world he wrote in his novel was unfolding before his eyes Kim hajin saw Kim Soho a character from his novel

standing before him he couldn't believe what was happening he could hear people's thoughts about Kim Soho making the Reality of his situation even more unreal Kim Soo is the main character of this novel the one who will lead this chaotic world he has a hero's kind and righteous heart but he Harbors a secret that he hides from everyone another character Shin Jong hack has the potential to match the main character however he is destined to become the Future Villain currently everyone is a Cadet but in the future his rivalry with Kim Soho will turn him

To evil the author Kim hajin found himself in the novel he created and wondered who he was he was confused when someone called him chundong he wondered if there was a character named Kim chundong in his novel look look at his reflection he saw a question mark on his face and realized he had turned into a character he had never written about disappointed with his faint existence he noticed that despite being in the cube Training Center he was extraordinarily Ordinary he was just a background character meant to fill up the audience seats a novel's extra

one day he received an email asking for a remake of his novel The Returned hero which he had put on pause more than half a year ago due to low demand feeling guilty for abandoning the novel he agreed to the Remake however he did not know that he would eventually fall into the fictional world he created he was still getting used to his unfamiliar face even after Two weeks he couldn't figure out who had dropped him into this world all he knew was that he possessed the body of Kim chundong a mere extra in his

novel if this world continued as he had written it would be 10 years before it was dropped the thought of being stuck in a novel for a decade mingling with a bunch of teenagers was frustrating he definitely didn't want to fight for his life in this suspended novel however he couldn't think of any way to escape Other than catching up with the main story to do that he would have to attend school at Cube cube is a man-made Island located near the East sea a modern city concentrated with the world's magic skills and talents it

is a hero's training center for students with special abilities called gifts only the top Elite are qualified to be Cube Cadets and this person whose body the author possessed was one of them he didn't know what kind of skill he had But it must be special since he got into the cube he hoped for something good for survival in this daunting school he reached his class and entered he was in class veritos the center of the whole Cub Ark here the good and evil characters comrades and Rivals and the novel's protagonist would form cleaks many

events would unfold because of that he would have to endure this for 10 years upon reaching his dormatory he received a parcel he assumed it must be Kim chuong's personal belongings he was shocked to find his laptop from The Real World inside when he opened it it automatically began synchronizing between Kim chundong the cube Cadet and Kim hajin the actual author of the novel a stats window appeared showcasing his attributes hjin recognized these settings from the novel his body started shaking as the synchronization reached 99% a screen appeared stating unique Authority setting intervention learned Suddenly

his face was revealed as the question mark dispersed Kim chuong's body was replaced by Kim hajin due to the synchronization and all stats were reset he couldn't understand what was happening and thought maybe this was Enlightenment a phenomenon that occurs when one goes beyond their limits in this world it's called Enlightenment after Enlightenment gifts skills and abilities are digitized and become much more powerful hajin could see his stats Window and took a look at his abilities the first things that stood were synchronization and conversion compared to Kim chuong's abilities his were weak but he had

points instead the second notable feature was setting intervention using S SP points he could modify or create non-living things and also use these points for gifts abilities and arts another important aspect was his increased importance as Kim hajin this meant he would have to become more Significant in the novel storyline the reason he received these abilities was because he needed to interfere in the main story if he wanted to influence the story he would have to get stronger so he began increasing his stats by investing points in this novel the concept of leveling up doesn't

exist and points are equivalent to valuable Commodities the best way to invest points is to increase luck luck isn't limited to the probability of finding an Unknown reward in a dungeon he immediately invests all his points in luck and the rest in perseverance due to luck being in effect he gained extra stats suddenly he received a warning that he couldn't change non-variable stats with SP points disappointed he got to change his luck and perseverance then he remembered he had 10,000 SP from novice consideration which he decided to use carefully in class the professor introduced himself

to everyone stating His world ranking was 9,737 after the introduction he got straight to the point telling everyone that Cube isn't a place for Fun the absolute indicator is grades and those who don't get good grades will fall behind he announced that the first task was to decide on their main weapon everyone gathered at the weapon Armory to choose their weapon the professor instructed that once they chose their weapon they couldn't change it for a Minimum of 6 months all the main characters chose weapons they were compatible with next it was hjin turn his current

stats weren't enough to wield any weapon typically used by cadetes so he decided to choose a weapon he had used before and could adapt to quickly everyone stared at hajin oddly as he chose a gun as his main weapon the professor noticing this asked if hajin had used a sword at the military academy and if he was sure about using a gun Hjin replied that he was sure the professor reminded him that Cadets were responsible for their decisions hjin overheard Whispers of other students criticizing his choice the bullets used in this world are called Magic

Bullets infused with Mana making them much more powerful than normal bullets however despite their merits people avoid guns for two main reasons first they have limited damage capacity that cannot be changed second the world is steeped in Legends and mythology artifacts from myths exist and the deeper the origin the higher the weapon grade hence people prefer old weapons over modern ones this didn't concern hajin since he had never used a sword before and wouldn't match up to the other cadetes choosing a gun was the best choice for him especially since he could modify non-living things

with his SP points the next task was to choose a Gift gifts could also be called ultimate abilities usually only one gift Awakens within a person but there are exceptions like Kim Soho who possesses the sword master gift kimso was surprised to see chyan and asked if she was there to train as well she got mad and replied asking why else she would come to the training center Kim Soo then asked if she knew about another sharpshooter in their class she remembered him and her expression quickly changed she assumed he could barely shoot a range

of 1 kilometer and Was just stalling before giving up on being a hero suo told her not to say such things rashly she wasn't expecting this from him and got annoyed telling him to leave her site meanwhile hajin remembered how the main character Kimo became the greatest hero with just one gift the first gift the author wrote will give him 10,000s so he chose the gift of Sharpshooter after writing the gift it modified itself to include all- ranged weapons Not Just Guns but also Bows along along with some special abilities with hudgin skills of observation

and reading he could answer questions in class and observe everyone within his field of vision naon got annoyed by the theory lectures and wanted to show some real skill suddenly a student came in informing everyone to gather in the plaza in 20 minutes everyone got hyped up except hjin the professor announced the teams each consisting of two Warriors one Sharpshooter and One support he said these teams would remain until mid-semester and were evenly mixed with higher and lower ranked cadetes when the professor displayed the teams hajin was not happy with the team he got he

was in the same team as Yona there are numerous lead roles in novels but among these leading characters Yona is special in the future she will take over Korea's top Guild essence of the straight and is also a successor of the youth family in The first half she clashes with Kim Soho but she will be influenced by him and become a strong supporter in with Yona was important for hajin since the deeper the characters are connected to the story The more SP he will get during this training session he was determined to attract yona's attention

the teams gathered and introduced themselves Yona tried to avoid them but since they were teammates she introduced herself formally she asked who the last member Was hajin came forward his teammates immediately recognized him as the kid who chose a gun the professor intervened and told them it wasn't time for chitchat and that they should move quickly to find the monster each team was supposed to fight they all quickly ran towards their designated Target but hjin immediately felt tired even though his stamina stats were above average all he could do was stay on their tail finally

they reached the area where the Black hump octopus appeared Yona devised a strategy to counter the monster the hump octopus had a crazy regeneration ability but its main body's attack wasn't powerful the problem lay with the humps on its head when it detected Danger it would shoot dozens of baby octopuses from its hump and these babies could paralyze opponents team members suggested they prioritize the baby octopuses and hajen being a sharpshooter would be best for the job however Yona Quickly rejected the idea saying she would handle the baby octopuses and suggested they preserve their magic

power for the black hump octopus in one hit hajen understood that she was trying to exclude him from the training yuon told everyone to get ready for the fight the black hump octopus destroyed the boat and one of the teammates made noise to grab its attention it noticed him and quickly swam towards him he ran away but the octopus immediately shot baby Octopuses from its hump at him the baby octopuses almost reached him but Yona destroyed all of them coming in his Direction her power was unimaginable since she was ranked seven in Cube he thanked

her and let her handle things she quickly attacked its main body but it retaliated forcing her to fall back however she didn't notice a baby octopus near her which quickly jumped towards her to attack this was when hjin decided to intervene and shot a bullet at the Baby octopus s SP points could be exchanged for stop points and S SP could be earned when hjin became popular but for an extra it was difficult to attract attention then the only other option was to intervene in the story just like now everyone was shocked at hajin accuracy

which prompted the black hump octopus to release dozens of baby octopuses hjin quickly closed his eyes and concentrated on his breath activating the bullet time ability a gift he created bullet time Slowed time for 3 seconds that meant for 3 seconds he could clearly see their movements after that it was simply shooting bullets into them he quickly shot bullets at them before time ran out and managed to kill every single baby octopus yona's eyes were wide open the black hump octopus weakened and without any delay Yona quickly grabbed its hump with a whip then their

other teammates jumped from the air they attacked simultaneously and quickly eliminated it With one hit hajin was exhausted and lay down on the ground the black hump octopus shrunk to its original size team five's clear time was 59 minutes putting them at 16th Place the final monster round was over team five finished 16th out of 100 Yona was shocked and deeply disappointed with their rank she was even more obset because naon had scored higher than her when she noticed Shin Jong hack smiling her anger grew she got up walked over to naon and asked her

how The actual battle had gone naon mentioned she finished in fourth place but really wanted to beat Shin Jong hack and Rachel she then asked Yona about her rank awkwardly Yona admitted she got 16th Place but was dying inside naan however was impressed that Yona managed to get 16th place with a gunman on her team commenting that she could have done better if he hadn't been part of it she pointed out that hajin wasted 50 minutes on a route that should have only taken 10 minutes yet on the contrary he had killed dozens of baby

octopuses before they could even reach the ground Yona wondered if that was even possible with just regular Magic Bullets and became curious about his real identity in the training room hajin was exhausted from his workout he checked his stats and saw that thanks to his luck his overall stats had increased significantly he had received 27 SP points he was glad to be involved with the main characters Because it had significantly boosted his SP meanwhile Yona reviewed footage of the monster round while watching she noticed that hajin shot 60 bullets in just 2.78 seconds with a

handgun she wondered if it was even possible to shoot 20 bullets per second she admitted that his reflexes were certainly extraordinary but his health was strangely lower than that of normal cadetes Yu Yona received a message from Shin Jong hack asking what she was doing She replied that she was analyzing the video explaining that if she was going to take over the guild she needed to analyze the people Shin Jong Haack mentioned that he thought all of her teammates were trash but then he asked about the gunman on her team she replied that he could

pull his own weight and was suitable for rank 934 Shin Jong hack suggested that maybe he just got lucky but Yona doubted that it was merely luck at the Creator's Sacred Grace skilled building Vice Captain Yuna was impressed with Kim soo's performance his swordsmanship was unlike anything else his mov were like a dance and his cutting force was extraordinary she understood why all the top guilds wanted him and resolved to recruit him no matter what next was Kim hajin she was surprised to see that he used a gun her secretary informed her that there were

stories about him in a guild community and that many people had Watched the video because he was on yona's team he had changed his weapon from a sword to a gun as soon as he reached the cube additionally the secretary noted that he used a non-automated gun and shot 60 bullets in 3 seconds all of which hit their targets accurately due to Kim hain's eccentric Talent people internally called him unorthodox Yuna found this enlightening noting that it was a phenomenon where a person realizes their true Talent she Explained that a person might not know their

true Talent before Enlightenment and because of this people would change their weapons to better correspond to their talent she was impressed that he achieved Enlightenment at just 17 years old but it didn't seem all that attractive if he was only limited to guns she suggested they leave him be so he could shine on his own she wanted to see if the unorthodox title was too much for him in the next scene Kim Soho was Having a duel with another student it was an anti-personnel practical exercise carried out between two Cadets because training weapons were used

it was easy to calculate results and it caused less pain however hajin was the only one who had to go up against an instructor there were no training guns so the instructor was fighting with hajin directly hajin was so tired that he quickly surrendered but the instructor wasn't listening to him insisting that he couldn't surrender In the real world as she threw a punch hajin saw it coming and quickly dodged the instructor was shocked she threw more punches but hajin kept dodging them the instructor was in disbelief his technique was amateur but he was able

to follow her attacks with his eyes he was using his ability called thousand M eyes which allowed him to see far and estimate his opponent's next move moves while the skill helped he still had to dodge on his own others were laughing at Him but he still earned some SP points from the attention after the training hajin went to the vending machine and bought a Coke Yona was passing by and they exchanged intense looks hajin thought he had written her character but he didn't like her personality he decided to conduct an experiment he called out

to her and tossed a Coke to her she asked if he was trying to start a fight hajin explained that she had paid for his bus last time so he was Giving her the coke to even things out it was an experiment to see how many points he could earn just by interacting with main characters Yona said it was fine and returned the coke warning him not to speak informally with her as she was leaving she noticed a weight difference in her bag she opened it and found the coke hajin had swiftly put it in

her bag she was about to throw it away but then stopped saying that the coke hadn't done anything wrong Yona Secretly loved common people's food like Coke Ramen and Burgers but couldn't buy them due to her reputation hajin realized he couldn't earn many SP points just from conversations and would have to intervene in the main story to gain more the next main story involves a demonic human Ambush at the national weapon Museum demonic humans are individuals who have made deals with the devil gaining great powers in exchange for their souls and acting as the Devil's

agents in this incident a demonic human hides inside the museum to assassinate someone but is ultimately defeated by the protagonist who happens to be there this incident Garners Kim Soho the interest of other main characters as he and naon defeat the Demonic human hajin decided to intervene in this episode while he was contemplating his plan an instructor came by and scolded him for not attending classes he immediately picked Up his laptop but received an email that he missed in the process clubs at Cube are extracurricular activities where Cadets organize independent activities including academic Pursuits martial

arts experience itial learning and hobbies there are many clubs providing a place for Cadets to interact with each other the club hajen was going to join was a travel club the club president welcomed the new members and explained that the objective of the travel Club was to rest They used portals once or twice a month to travel outside the cube and today they were going to Soul the president instructed everyone to draw lots to form pairs hjin watched as everyone picked their lots and that's when Yona picked hain's name Yona said they would be moving

separately hajin agreed and Yona warned him again not to speak to her casually hajin understood they reached the national weapons Museum as hajin wandered around he noticed Nan staring At a bow continuing further he spotted Kim Soho approaching him hajin asked if he was looking at the seven Branch sword Kim Soho replied yes hajin introduced himself and Soho smiled saying he had heard of him a sharpshooter who chose a gun Kim Soho was strong handsome and had a strong sense of justice hajin recalled being criticized by many of his readers who claimed the protagonist wasn't

realistic suddenly there was a blast that shook the museum security announced That monsters were attacking causing chaos within the museum people panicked and ran for safety then naon smashed the glass urging everyone to calm down and wait for Museum standby to arrive she warned that running outside would make them easy prey naon grabbed a bow and instructed Soo to choose weapons as they prepared to defend themselves until the heroes arrived suddenly a demonic human entered hajin noted him as one of lucius's minions a villain crucial for The protagonists growth the Demonic human summoned his vicious

CLA and charged towards naon however Soho intervened attacking from behind hajin anticipated Soho defeating him effortlessly but to his shock Soho was thrown into the wall something was wrong the plot didn't go as hajin had written initially Soho was supposed to struggle before unleashing his power to overcome his opponent Soho was coughing up blood hajin asked if he was okay as the Demonic human prepared another attack naon intervened sending arrows at him despite hitting him he remained unaffected blocking the Arrows with his body charging at naon he was about to strike when suo stepped in

blocking the attack the Demonic human then transformed into a shadow overpowering Soo completely naon attacked from behind with Mana infused arrows enraging him he retaliated by grabbing her face and slamming her into a wall hudin grew Worried that someone might die unable to comprehend why things are not going according to his novel frantically he opened his laptop his hands shaking checking his remaining bullets he realized even with increased damage it wouldn't be enough remembering that important settings shouldn't have changed he swiftly switched his Mana bullets to light attribute bullets knowing that demonic humans possessed dark

attributes and light could burn Darkness he screamed for Soho to move and fired a light bullet hitting the Demonic human's arm Soho seized the opportunity absorbing the light energy and cutting the enemy in half finally defeating him everyone was exhausted Soo went to check on naon but she abruptly threw his hand away feeling helpless hajin reassured her that her brother would come soon to comfort her just as it happened in the novel however Soho and naon were shocked to hear hain's Words naon coughed up blood her injuries worsening outside the monsters were taken down by

the Vice Captain who almost killed every monster she inquired about the situation inside the museum an officer informed her that a demonic human had appeared but was swiftly defeated by three Cube Cadets impressed she asked for their names and learned they were naan and Kim Soo upon hearing Soho's name she immediately ran inside eager to meet him personally spotting a Cube Cadet she approached only to realize it was hajin hajin told her Kim Soo was inside she thanked him but then stopped surprised about how he knew she was looking for Soho finally relieved to escape

the chaos hajin pondered over the involvement of a foreign character whose significance remained minimal as the story continued as it was supposed to he wondered about the sudden changes then he remembered that he had forgotten about the co-author of his novel this World was a remake of his novel and if the story was being edited by the email sender then predictions based on his novel might be useless now shocked he received a message a critique suggesting that there weren't enough threats to harm the protagonist or those around him in response he had raised the strength

of enemies even if it led to chaos after the incident the instructor arrived to ensure their safe journey home suo inquired about neon's condition the Instructor informed him that she had returned home on sick leave and advised them to head back to the cube promptly suho questioned hajin why he had mentioned neon's brother earlier confused hajin remembered the change in the story and asked about her brother Soho asked if he was pretending not to know hajin clarified that he genuinely didn't know frustrated Soho ended the topic after reaching his dormatory hajin researched naon and discovered

something New about her brother in the firef flake plan her brother was seriously injured and fell into a coma the Demonic human suppression plan firef flake was the first event where Chia Jun a supporter of the main characters gained honor 13-year-old Chan was very proud of her brother becoming a hero that was the main plot hajin then received another message in the original novel Jun was trustworthy and a supporter of Kim Soho however the co-author decided that there Were too many supporters for the main characters so the plot had been changed four years ago gun

received the devil's branding during the incident and became a devil seed hjin was horrified meanwhile na was in the hospital reflecting on the incident suddenly her father arrived surprising her she asked why he had left his work to come her father replied that work wasn't the issue and inquired about her health she assured him she was fine she then asked If she could see her brother before leaving and he allowed her to do so the devil's seed higher ranked demons leave a branding on humans turning them into a devil seed a human that becomes a

seed germinates over time and emerges as a powerful demon hajin had set the incubation period to 5 to 6 years meaning more than half of that time had already passed hajin decided that before the demon awakens inside jinan's body he would have to kill him hiring a human or A mercenary to assassinate someone from one of the big families was not an option with no signs of seed incubation it was impossible to report and deal with it currently Kim Soho was not strong enough even if Heroes came to fight they would have to sacrifice their

lives which would disrupt the future storyline naon sat beside her brother hajin realized he had no choice but to kill Jun himself naon told her brother about The incident expressing her confusion about how a bullet could create such a deep wound on a demonic human she stopped talking when a nurse informed her that visiting hours were over after saying goodbye to her brother she stepped outside recalling hajin words Furious she resolved to seek revenge in the tower of Heroes Vice Captain Yuna was illegally accessing information in a national facility without permission despite the risk she

wasn't worried she Wanted to find records of the Ambush incident in the mum during her search she discovered light attribute mana on the top of a demonic human and suspected that one of the people who defeated the Demonic human was able to control it she believed that this person could become a great asset against the Demonic humans so she was eager to recruit them the Demonic human had been defeated by three Cube cadetes Kim suo and chyan were already known to her then she discovered That the third person was rank 934 Kim hajin meanwhile Kim

hajin was sitting in the training center when he realized that other people couldn't see his laptop he discovered that a new function had been added to it minor story changes like the character Damian's drop in confidence were now being notified to him the function would alert him if there were any story changes within a 30 m radius as hajin was sitting there chyon approached him From behind and asked him for far hajin was hesitant and declined she taunted him asking if he was scared hajin replied that he didn't want to get scolded for using real

ammunition against Cadets this angered her an instructor intervened stating that hajin couldn't spar with other cadetes since he didn't have a training weapon and asked her to leave naon left frustrated hain's top priority at that moment was to kill her brother he knew that if he Improved his relationship with her she would only feel a much greater sense of betray later on in the Veritas Club the club president yunan welcomed everyone the purpose of the club was Monster analysis and raid strategy research people were Charmed by his attractive appearance which was all part of his

demonic ability in the novel various incidents like Cadets going missing and the infiltration of monsters take place with yunan being at the core of these Events he possessed a captivation ability granted by the demon making him a demonic human his Target was Yona yunan presented a hologram of a high intermediate grade monster a mountain Tyrant information about high-grade monsters is extremely valuable and details about their vital points can be sold for at least billions the club president asked if anyone knew information about the monsters vital points Yu Yona replied currently there Is no information available

he explained that since they were in the club they would discuss these topics and those who wanted to participate in the discussion could join the Afterparty hajin asked Yona if she was going to join she ignored him and walked past hajin asked again this time formally if she was going to the Afterparty she replied that she was as she might get some useful information hajin then asked if she was planning to share it with her Guild's Raiding team 50 years ago when Dungeons and Towers first appeared yona's family played a key role and now leads

one of the top guilds in Korea The Guild essence of the spirit hudin mentioned that he heard their Vice skilled leader was quite strong to the point that that Yona the legitimate successor felt threatened Yona asked him what he was trying to say hjin offered her information about the mountain tyrant's weakness he explained that if they Attacked a very small pattern on the back of its heel it would stop moving in return he asked for a desert eagle from her Guild's weapon Armory y Yona thinking he sounded so confident asked if he had proof he

replied nope there was a moment of silence she was quite angry and regretted expecting anything from him hjin wondered if she ignored the information which was worth billions then it would be useless but if she believed him he would gain a reliable Ally who'd be known as Souls King in the future Yona decided to contact her Guild and inform them about the mountain tyrants weak point in the next scene hajin was devastated to discover that Kim chandong had taken a loan of 300 million one and spent it all hajin thought that instead of returning to

his world he would die paying off the debt currently there were two ways to make money legally the first was through stocks guilds were created to find and Raid Dungeons and the stocks of public guilds could be purchased from stock markets hjin already knew which guilds would grow big but he didn't have any money to invest the second method was field hunting a field is a danger zone where monsters appear and one can immediately trade in the bodies of monsters for money however his stats were only a little better than the average man's and upgrading

the cube gun with SP would be a waste suddenly there Was a knock on his door telling of his arrival of a package he wondered who had sent him a package he opened the door and saw a package it was a desert eagle in the gungin one Jew field region a lady at the counter welcomed hajin after he used the portal hajin thought she was really nice to a cube Cadet he stepped outside and admired the beautiful scenery of the city this region had relatively low danger fields and many foreigners were also hunting all over

People were searching for party members and some were selling potions a member of an agency was offering 600,000 one in exchange for three hobgoblins hajin realized it would be more advantageous to sell to the agencies as he was contemplating this a man approached him from behind and asked if he was there for the hunt hajin inquired if he was an agent the man replied yes and started searching for his card he handed hjin his card and hjin noticed that he seemed A bit clumsy upon seeing the card hajin read the name Park suak leader of

the sh agency hajin knew that Park Sak's agency would become the best agency in Korea and that he would be Kim suho's agent hajin never thought he would meet him in such a place hajin agreed to form a contract with him this world was just the beginning of the novel and there were many characters who hadn't realized their true potential yet Park Sak was really happy to find his first customer And promised to provide the best service hajin then wondered if it was okay okay to take away Kim soos agent they reached the fields and

hajin asked if it was okay for him to follow them Park soak replied that hajin didn't need to worry about him and he could leave him if things got dangerous Park soak noticed hobgoblin Footprints and suggested hunting them mentioning that they could be sold for 200,000 to 300,000 one each hajin was unsure about this because one Magic bullet cost 200,000 one and hunting a more expensive monster would be better for making a larger profit then hajin saw a steel boar and suggested hunting it Park soak said they couldn't defeat it with guns and bullets as

they wouldn't even break through its skin hajin confidently said he could handle it and took out a Desert Eagle Park soak was shocked to see it hajin had also added new settings to the gun using SP points he took aim and shot a Bullet which pierced through the steel boar killing it immediately Park suak was in disbelief hajin then spotted another monster and shot at it it was a Black Pelican monster miles away from them Park soak was impressed that hajin could see that far after Gathering the steel boar and Black Pelican hajin asked how

they could carry them outside Park soak suggested hiring people and began calculating how much profit they could make they thanked each Other for today's field Hunting Park soak asked hajin where he was going to use all of his money hajin replied the stock market a new Guild packhorse Masters was founded by demonic humans there was a dungeon that this Guild pled plan to attack and after this dungeon attack packhorse Master stock was expected to increase by 1,000% guaranteeing profits hudin wondered if there were any other ways to make money he recalled a shady website like

violet Society then he remembered another group the chameleon troop the main villains in the latter half of the story all of the members identities were concealed and the only person who had information about their activities and location was huding even though they were a criminal organization they hated demonic humans hajin thought that if he could meet the leader they might help him kill chai jinyun as he was pondering this his laptop suddenly turned off hajin was Worried because this might be his only way to return to his world then it turned back on and began

to auto update meanwhile Yona and Jong hack met in a cafe people stared at them wondering if they were celebrities Yona asked about his grades JN hack replied that they were fine Yona said that the John hack she knew would only be satisfied with being number one John hack insisted it was fine just then naon entered John hack got up and went towards her asking If her health was okay she wasn't happy to see him and said she was fine they completely forgot about Yona naan then asked if they knew Kim hjin Yona asked what

about him naon told them about the Demonic human incident she explained that she was with Kim suo and hajin when it happened the enemy was too strong and Kim hajin shot off the arm of a demonic human with a handgun she said he seemed suspicious naan then asked Yona what she thought About him since they were on the same team Yona conducted some background checks on huding she discovered that he was an orphan and currently 300 million W in debt they couldn't understand how he was able to find the vital point of the mountain tyrants

knowing that he wouldn't reveal his Secrets if asked she instructed investigators to continue probing into his background Yona remarked that he didn't seem impressive At first she wondered if he really had The power to break through the Demonic human arm and suspected that he might be hiding something naon suggested what if he is a demonic human yuon dismissed the idea stating that demonic humans would not attack their own kind they continued to speculate about what hajin could be hiding Jang Haack stood up and declared that he would deal with hajin meanwhile hajin laptop update was

almost complete suddenly his wrist started glowing and he felt intense pain he heard a voice Saying the stigma is a Creator's Authority and contains magic powers his head was bombarded with information and he couldn't bear it falling to the floor a mysterious pattern appeared on his hand the update had improved his observation and reading skills soon after the museum incident the three Cadets who fought the Demonic human were awarded the exemplary Citizen Award hajin could still feel pain from the mark that had appeared but he needed to Figure out what update he had received naon

told him to shut up though hajin hadn't said anything she repeatedly told him to shut up hajin reminded her that he had saved her life annoyed she started arguing with him suho intervened and told naan to exchange seats with him suho thanked hajin saying that without him they wouldn't have one hajin replied that they would have one without his help anyway without him Soo might have awakened even stronger powers because Main characters always get stronger in the face of danger and hardship after a while a hero came to present the awards Yak ranked 37th began

the ceremony and called for the award recipients he asked if he was Kim Soo when Soo confirmed yusak advised him not to join the association suggesting it might be better for him to work as a hunter since Heroes have many responsibilities and there's no fun suo responded that he felt suited to being a hero yusak Remarked that Soho was no fun then yusak saw naon and mentioned it had been a long time since they last saw each other she called him master and greeted him but he corrected her saying he wasn't a master of an

Archer which made her feel embarrassed next was hjin yusak asked who he was and hjin introduced himself yusak handed the award and showed no interest after the ceremony hajin went to a restaurant he opened his laptop to explore the new features he got from the Update the update included the stigma internet access and the Book of Truth the stigma could be used depending on hain's Willpower when he checked it started to Glow so he quickly hit it and decided to examine it further when he got back to dorm next was internet access which allowed him

to use any website the most important one was Violet Society the most famous among non-public sites it offered information weapons bounties commissions and acted As a trading place there wasn't a hero who hadn't interacted with Violet Society normally there were huge entrance fees to access the website but hajin could use points to register while he was checking the website yunga approached hajin and asked if if he knew who she was she said that after the ceremony she had searched for him everywhere she gave him a business card and mentioned that she was curious about something

related to him although she Acted very kind to people she was interested in her real personality was quite different she discarded anyone who didn't meet her standards hajin knew that making connections with her now could help him a lot so he decided to show disinterest he told her that he had nothing to say yunsung insisted she was just trying to talk with him but he rejected her request she had only come to find hajin because she saw him using a light attribute and her attention was Purely out of curiosity however because hajin rejected her her

curiosity will turned into something else when hajin used the stigma magic power he could summon a dagger just by thinking about it magic power was a stat that greatly influenced gifts hajin never thought he'd be able to use magic or ancient weapons since he didn't belong to this world however he was happy that he could could use a little bit of Magic the next ability was the book of Truth which Contained the truth and would answer any questions within its permitted limits he started with a simple question asking his height it answered correctly consuming one

SP Point suddenly his Smartwatch started ringing it was an emergency alarm notifying him about a missing Cadet hjin realized that the novel's second Arc had started the Cub's serial murder incident as the plot progresses six Cadets go missing over a period of one month this Arc is Especially important because the culprit last Target is Yona hajin thought that if the co-author intervened there would be a huge problem and someone important might die so it would be better if he caught the culprit first but then he realized that if he intervened without thinking it through the

story might change therefore he decided to watch for now in the training center some Cadets were bullying hajin taunting him by saying he should be ashamed if he was Struggling to lift the bar Kim suho tried to intervene but his friend held him back suho insisted that as class representative he should do something but his friend argued that hajin had pissed off Jong Haack and it would be inconvenient for him to get involved he also mentioned that if hajin had destroyed a demonic human why would he tolerate being bullied hajin tried to lift the bar

but failed badly the class representative thought it must have been Pure luck that hajin defeated the Demonic human suho then intervened to stop the bullying and in instructor arrived and asked about the commotion the instructor brought the results of the last quiz and instructed the cadets to check quietly to everyone surprise hajin got first place it was easy for him since he had cheated using the settings suddenly a sword fell to the ground a girl was completely shocked by her results she was Rachel Elizabeth Lise England's princess and Cub's third rank student until now she

had never been out of first place in tests in school hjin realized he had unintentional hurt her Pride back in her Mansion her people were congratulating her on her acceptance into Cube she had promised everyone she would work hard to meet their expectations for the sake of her royal household in England she apologized to her citizens for her failure the professor admired hajin Answers and advised everyone to learn from his attitude and improve the phenomenon realm analysis subject was really difficult and she was curious about how hajin studied hajin had no clue what was going

on Rachel was determined to beat him next time with the book of Truth hajin can gain any information in this world as long as he has SP points however he doesn't have any immediate use for it the next major issue is the second main story The Cube Isn't a safe place from demonic humans and hain's current stats are not sufficient to fight them however thanks to the attention from Jong hacks gang he gained lots of SP points he decided to upgrade his weapon he added a function to upgrade his Desert Eagle into a sniper rifle

consuming 250 SP points his gun quickly transformed into a sniper rifle and could also revert to a handgun next he added arts arts used talent and physical skills the most important skill For surviving an assassination as a sharpshooter is positioning and the art useful for positioning his parkour he felt its effects right away hajin received a group text about another Cadet who had gone missing all the cadets who disappeared before Yona got killed two people had already been killed and hajin wondered if it was okay to let them just die the next day they had

outside training the instructor told everyone that it was a dungeon simulator Made with magical engineering and a puppet simulation of a real monster awaited them inside the instructor warned everyone not to let their guard down even if it was just training the Veritas and cultivation classes would work together with two teams from each class combined to make a larger group everyone gathered with their assigned teens there were many traps and Mysteries in the dungeon hjin made some tribute bullets just in case but was Confident that this would be easy suddenly many story change alerts appeared

and he was confused about how the story had changed one girl was scolding Soo for not Gathering quickly the characters personalities had become crazier than before from teamm8 a character named Jaden was being overly friendly with Yona and his growth potential had increased by 0.5 another character Sven had his mental state worsen and the probability of him Becoming encroached by a devil servant during the dungeon raid had heavily increased things were not looking good there were two people hjin had to be careful of Jaden acts strong around the week but is weak against the strong

a typical selfish narcissist Jaden introduced his teammates from his class Yona introduced her teammates except for huding Sven a government-funded international student was one of Germany's future top heroes and liked Naon like other students Sven joined cube with the dream of climbing to the top however in front of other incredible students he ended up being seen as merely above average it was the first time he felt inferior and lost as a result Sven made the decision to sell his soul to the devil in order to gain immense power but hudin was particularly concerned about Sven

during the dungeon raid hudin knew he had to stay vigilant especially considering the Unpredictability of Jaden and the potential threat posed by sven's compromised mental state Jaden approached hajin and said he had heard a lot about him but hajin didn't like him and told him to get lost Jaden replied that the rumors about him must be true then people's perception of hajin had reached Rock Bottom largely due to certain rumors suggesting that Kim hajin was using his position as a Cadet to Blackmail others and that he went to Soul every weekend to enjoy himself hjin

already knew where the rumors had started every team entered the dungeon one by one when team a entered they came across lots of doors Yona wondered which door they should take Jaden was suggesting something but hajin interrupted saying they should go through the sixth door Jaden got pissed off but y Yona agreed with hajin opinion she said that even though he looks stupid he has good eyes hajin chose the Path where Nan's team had gone if Sven really signed a contract with a demonic human it would be difficult for naon to handle herself he couldn't

afford to lose her otherwise the story would be messed up Jaden complained that hajin attitude was pissing him off hajin told him to worry about the monster in front of them Jaden said he couldn't see anything because of the dark hajin told him there was a salamander right in front of them one of them shot a light Arrow to check and indeed there was a salamander in the dark everyone got into their battle formation Jaden asked if someone had a water attribute hajin thought he didn't have to battle yet Yu Yona took her Whip and

swung it towards the salamander grabbing its mouth other teammates quickly jumped in slamming it down they easily defeated the salamander hajin noticed the electric spark from her Whip and wondered if she had already reached the level of the eve of Enlightenment hajin tripped over Yona and they both fell Yona got up and started beating hajin but then she stopped when their teammates spotted an arrow hjin realized it was a poison arrow from a demonic human and when they fell it had missed its Target meanwhile team three was struggling Sven had been hit by a poison

arrow naon picked Sven up on her back and was running running from the monster it was a huge Magna Golem on the other side small Salamanders attacked team8 but they swiftly guarded themselves one of them shot an arrow to take down a salamander and the rest of the teammates quickly eliminated the remaining ones they easily defeated all of them hajin thought everything was going smoothly but he wondered if he hadn't been able to sense the poison arrow was it really a trap for training he was suspicious he sensed something behind him a salamander preparing an

attack It launched its attack but hjin used his magic stigma to summon a wall of water the salamander's fire breath was strong but Team 8 was unharmed thanks to hajin they were in shock wondering if it was really a fake dummy Jaden got mad at hajin asking why he hadn't responded earlier when they were looking for water attributes hajin explained that it was the effect of disarming his magic defense Yona intervened and stopped them she thought hajin might be lying about The magic defense it wasn't something that could be purchased when he couldn't even afford

a desert eagle she wondered how someone who wasn't Kim Soo or Jong hack could put an attribute in their magic know the vital points of a mountain Tyrant and be able to put attributes in Magic she remembered Na's words about him being a demonic human she was now suspicious of him meanwhile an intermediate grade five monster was on a rampage one CET suggested killing It but another advised waiting until other teams arrived sven's condition kept forening he felt helpless and nothing seemed to be working for him suddenly he heard a voice offering him the strength

to become stronger stating that the price was much lower than losing everything feeling desperate Sven accepted the offer the devil pulled his body towards itself and Sven started screaming the others didn't know what was happening to him the magma Golem Heard his scream and immediately attacked them but they managed to run away in time with naon carrying Spen on her back the magma Golem struck through the wall and knocked two cadetes down naun dropped Sven unsure of what to do as the Golem stared at her she thought it couldn't be a puppet Golem and feared

she was going to die Golem prepared an attack suddenly an ice bullet hit the magma Golem stopping its attack naon was clueless until she saw hajin holding a Gun a few minutes earlier a path had been blocked Jaden asked hajin why there was a wall in front of them if he had said there would be a boss hajin was confused as well he told them to break the wall Jaden swung his sword but couldn't even scratch it one of them spotted a gap hudin said they could go through there Jaden complained that they couldn't climb

a wall that high hajin used his parkour art to climb up the wall and quickly reach the Gap after a Moment the cave started shaking the magma Golem initially stopped began to move again and headed towards hajin just in time other Cadets arrived and started attacking the Golem neun relieved quickly picked up her bow and prepared an attack the cadets were barely holding their ground suddenly something flew and struck the Golem it was Sven the Golem attacked him but he dodged meanwhile naon aimed carefully determined not to repeat past mistakes she shot an arrow That

pierced through the Golem's head finally defeating the monster the cadetes could hardly believe they had beaten it one Cadet asked naan how she managed to kill the monster she replied that it was a finishing move Sven wasn't completely demoni but the process had only been delayed he could turn into a demon at any moment naon noticed hajin and approached him to thank him his eyes sparkled and he asked her to repeat it which made her feel embarrassed Chon's Life was riddled with tragedies on her sixth birthday she lost her mother to a demonic human which

made her determined to become a hero from a very young age she trained relentlessly she couldn't form deep connections with anyone believing that opening her heart meant revealing her weaknesses not many people ever heard words of gratitude from her as her conversations often included more I'm sorry than thank you hajin had written her character that Way naon asked hajin why he was letting John hack harass him if he was this strong hajin replied that he couldn't beat them yet naon mentioned that she saw his power with the gun earlier hajin showed her his Desert Eagle

and she freaked out telling him he would get expelled if they found out hjin explained that he only used it when absolutely necessary bes besides he had figured out how to hide his weapon within his stigma so no one would find Out despite this she insisted that he was too powerful and asked if he had a gift that strengthened his Firearms hajin said he had something like that as she was leaving she assured him she wouldn't tell anyone then stopped and asked if he wanted to say something hajin said no if hajin apologized now she

might forgive him but he couldn't do that because he wanted to maintain distance he had to kill her brother the instr announced that the raid was Suspended and they needed to exit quickly several problems had occurred during the dungeon raid including malfunctioning cameras and real monsters invading the artificial dungeon the instructors realized this too late although it was a serious incident there were no casualties so instead of dispatching outside agencies the cube decided to investigate the matter internally the Demonic human who had taken an executive seat at the cube had Successfully covered up the incident

the side effects of a contract with a demon include hypertrophy of emotion and Obsession in the worst case scenario Spen emotions could get out of control while he is alone with naon to prevent that from happening hajin decided to check their Tendencies using the software on his laptop he could access anyone's private messages he felt guilty for checking naon messages but proceeded to open sven's Messages according to the Original plot during the hunting club week Sven goes berserk he decided to follow them and head to the MTG dungeon hajin received a call from Kim Soho

who wanted to ask him something and asked if he had some time on Friday Mt gari was called the mecca of training by martial artists because of its pure and spiritual energy however the people who came to mgar were not only restricted to martial artists there were also those who searched for valuable items in these Mountains such as this man who was lecturing by giving a set of instructions which annoyed hajin finally after a long lecture he let go as hajin was running he tripped and found a jinang route he ate it because it increased

his variable stats by two for 30 minutes he could have sold it for at least 700 million one he was climbing a cliff that was so high he understood why no one had discovered it yet in the middle of the Mt gari Cliff lies an Undead dungeon the dungeon boss is an intermediate grade monster the death knight however hajin is no match for him right now but that doesn't matter because hain's objective was not the boss but the dungeon's hidden stage skeletons attacked him but hjin quickly pulled out his gun and shot their heads as

more skeletons charged at him he used his skill to find a path through them he walked over the skeletons taking care of them swiftly while he moved he easily Dispatched all of them and reached the witch of Angel's Abode the hidden boss of antari in the future she would set up Evangel Castle the worst Undead Fortress in history he came to this dungeon for two reasons the growth typee weapon ether and Evangel seed ether is a weapon that made the character Tomer a demonic human an executive of wickedness he reached the place and saw a

tree glowing with gems and there was a little girl the witch still not mature he had to Deal with her while her body and intelligence were incomplete he wasn't ready to kill her but it had to be done besides hajin was the one who created her a witch couldn't be killed by a gun so he Unleashed his stigma to turn the light attribute into a spere he threw the spere towards her and a bright light flashed she was still alive but her body started to disintegrate releasing energy and then she disappeared she became the Evangel

seed and he successfully Acquired The Ether weapon all of hjin stats increased by 0.6 due to Ether and its Master cannot be changed hjin was already handling it pretty well and was confident that it would get even better as it grew the most important thing he obtained was the Evangel seed hjin was sure it would become an ally if it grew well to grow the Evangel seed it must be fed a small amount of blood however since the witch's nature and tendency change depending on Whose blood it is Fed he has to be careful about

whose blood he uses he couldn't just go and ask the main characters for their blood so he decided to put that aside for now next on his list was to deal with speno berserk the hunting club president welcomed everyone hajin wasn't sure how things would go since he didn't narrate the general ending naon gets severely injured and Sven dies from the aftermath of the Demonic humans rampage this incident was a plot to make Kim Soho Care more about naon by making them think demonic humans Target was naon then Yona also gets kidnapped but the fact

that bothered hajin the most was that sven's settings were different from the novel he hadn't gone berserk and was even using the power of demons very slightly hajin was worried that if he fought him right away he would lose naon noticed him and wonder why he was glaring at her Sven alerts naon about the recent disappearance of cadetes naon Told him that hajin was not the type of person who would do such things then they went hunting Sven hunted a few deer with his demonic Powers when naon arrived he quickly hit it naon captured one

deer but was surprised to see that Sven had already hunted multiple deer naon lost a bet and asked what he wanted to ask her hjin watched them from afar ready to intervene if Sven went berserk Sven asked naon if she wanted to go out with him she quickly turned him down Saying they had only been acquainted for a week she added that she only likes guys who are stronger than her these words angered him as she was leaving he quickly attacked her with his demonic Powers but to his surprise hajin arrived just in time and

blocked the attack with ether he asked naon if she was okay however as he was distracted Sven attacked him from behind and grabbed his throat hjin struggled naon concentrated her magic powers imitating a bright Light there are a few characters with great potential who cannot bring out their full potential because they chose the wrong weapon naon is the greatest out of all of them using a weapon that doesn't suit her she summoned a huge sword using her magic powers and slashed Spen into pieces she completely destroyed him hjin acted surprised and asked her what it

was she didn't know what it was he asked if she was okay she said yes but then she started getting Dizzy and fell after a while hjin ped naon up on his back and carried her to her dorm she freaked out and told him to let her down he put her down but her leg wasn't moving she was trembling hajin explained that it was magic power exhaustion a state that occurs when a user has overused their magic power he told her she wouldn't be able to move for at least a day she finally agreed to

get on his back again as they walked hjin asked if she planned to keep using The bow she asked why he was asking that all of a sudden today naon had unconscious Unleashed her gift it was a supreme sword that could Massacre hundreds of monsters and even demonic humans with a single slash she could become unmatched in large scale allout Wars an Overlord of the battlefield however for that to happen she would have to let go of her bow naan got annoyed with him for asking such a question when they arrived near the Portal custom

hajin put her down and told her to find her own way from there the next day people were talking about the incident where naon was attacked by Spen who turned out to be a demonic human hajin reached the classroom where Kim Soho welcomed him there were several other important characters present as well the day before the hunting club incident Soho had asked hajin to spare some time for him when hajin asked why Soho brought up the incident where Several Cadets had gone missing he explained that Cube had entrusted some Cadets with the task of investigating

the disappearances Cube had selected a few trainees based on their grades for the mission to track down the culprit since the culprit was suspected to be a trainee it would be easier to track them from the inside hajin asked what this had to do with him suho mentioned that he had heard hajin had Keen eyes and that naan had recommended him for the Task suho thanked hajin for coming and started the meeting by sharing his theory he said he didn't think the culprit was the same demonic human who attacked naon Jong hack interrupted threatening him

to not call naan by her first name as if they were friends suho corrected himself referring to her as chyon suo then explained that it was highly likely chyan was the next Target of the Demonic humans since Sven had failed another demonic human would Surely attempt to attack her he asked if anyone had any suspicions or had noticed someone acting strangely hjin knew who the culprit was but was waiting patiently for them to expose themselves however unlike in the novel where six victims disappeared over 2 months three people had already gone missing in the span

of 2 weeks he was worried that at this pace even more victims would disappear remembering naon words he decided he couldn't just sit and watch As danger loomed over them hajin raised his hand and suggested that the academics Club leader hyan seem suspicious suho said that hian had an alibi and that they had already investigated the people who were close to the first victim hajin countered asking what if the victims had gone to yunan themselves Jong hack scoffed suggesting hajin was implying that a trainee with mere mental magic had lured them you Yona interrupted questioning

Why hajin was trying to prove hian was the culprit when they had already said he has an alibi she pointed out that compared to the club leader the chances of hajin being a demonic human were higher hajin didn't know how to respond suho defended him Sayang hajin also had an alibi as he used a portal around the time of the crime Yona retorted that portal records could easily be fabricated a character named Kim hak stood up suggesting they beat hajin to Investigate further others seemed to enjoy the idea hajin laughed and agreed to the fight

despite so's attempts to calm them down hajin suggested they asked chyon to confirm his innocence a ball flew towards hajin who barely dodged it Jong haak angrily threatened him to keep neon's name out of his mouth hajin mentioned that they had worked together to kill the Demonic human during her attack accusing Jong hack of playing childish tricks instead of Listening this enraged Jong Haack who stood up as hajin began to leave as hajin was leaving he Tri tripped and Kim hak came at him with a strong punch hajin dodged causing hak to miss and blow

up the door instead everyone was shocked including hak hajin pulled out a gun but Soho intervened with his sword stopping the situation from escalating Soo told Yona that if she was so suspicious of hajin she should ask naon hajin left the classroom naon confirmed To Yona that there was no way hajin could be a demonic human leaving her at a loss for words hajin was stressed he didn't know what he was even doing not only had he fallen into the novel he wrote but he was also having emotional disputes with the characters he had written

with love he felt slick with everything and deeply missed his friends and family he wondered how time was flowing in the original World if it was flowing normally then he would be Considered missing and he worried about his parents and whether they were sad because of him he questioned if he could even go back in the first place a message appeared saying his perseverance had increased this made him somewhat happy it was good that his perseverance had increased otherwise he would have definitely given up on returning he got up determined to go back home no

matter what suho returned after searching for hajin but failed to locate him Yona Asked hak if he had used his gift earlier she turned away remarking how a mere Sharpshooter had dodged the attack of a martial arts expert suddenly she received a message from Club president yunan asking if they could meet in the study room before the club meeting she she agreed to meet him he was completely covered in blood and had an evil laugh the next day hajin was in class and Soo was feeling sorry for him naon had recovered from her injuries and

came to School Soho asked about her health but Jong hack wasn't happy with so being too close to naon class started and the professor announced that the midterm exams were less than a week away there would be a theory exam followed by a practical exam the Practical exams would be assessed based on two categories du between trainees and battles against Monsters summoned by Mages the professor warned that this year's exams would be challenging for hajin written exams were Easy but duels posed a problem duels required the use of one of three nomination tickets each trainee

was given allowing them to nominate a trainee they wish to fight while it might seem like an opportunity for a higher ranking trainee to earn points by defeating a lower ranked one the system adjusted points based on the rank difference even a rank one trainee would receive negative points if they won against a lower ranked opponent however Some trainees ignore the system and use their nomination tickets on people they dislike aiming to defeat them another thing bothering hajen was Rachel she was too close to him she didn't talk to him but kept hanging around him

she always used to study alone before she was secretly peing at his notes hjin wrote down some names which confused her they were his parents names yunan texted Yona that he was in the study room she arrived and he Greeted her gently Yona asked where the other club members were he replied that they would join them soon she noticed a scent of candles and he explained that it enhanced Focus while studying yunan mentioned that he had heard she joined the Demonic human search team and he himself was part of the second-year search team he expressed

frustration over their lack of progress and asked if she had any suspects Yona mentioned there was someone who had been making Claims about him being a demonic human yunan asked if there was any evidence evence she replied there wasn't but then paused realizing the implication of his question about evidence he quickly corrected himself but she saw through his facade and confronted him to show his true self yunan was exposed and used his power hub seconde dormatory Yu Yona was tied to a chair realizing that yunan was indeed the culprit a demonic human hjin wasn't just

bluffing she needed to Send a distress signal for help despite struggling yunan approached her and warned her against sending any messages however she had already managed to send a message to hajin hajin wonders why she would send nine to him yunan takes her watch claiming no one would understand the gibberish she sent upon seeing the message sent to Kim hajin yunan realized that hajin suspected him of being a demonic human and decided to kill hajin yua mentioned that the search team Likely knew and was on their way yunan dismissed it stating that he would leave

Cube once it was all over this angered Yona which pleased him as his Demon Lord Lilith desired to see her fear hajin was puzzled over the meaning of nine after some thought he realized that nine in Korean is pronounced as safe he quickly achd his book of truth about yona's location meanwhile yunan was attempting to brainwash Yona but she resisted fiercely with her willpower he praised Her determination but insisted that she would eventually give up he began to unleash his ability ities to fully control her mind but suddenly a bullet pierced his head yuon was

shocked and the Demonic human screamed in pain hajin told Yona that if she had listened to him she wouldn't have ended up in this situation yunan asked where he was hajin explained that it was a specially made bullet that wouldn't easily come out unless surgically removed Yun hun Searched for hajin but hajin was Far Away shooting with a sniper rifle he took aim and fired multiple shots at yunan finally hajin lined up a final shot and fired hajin instructed Yona to rest while the search team would arrive soon grateful for saving her life Yona thanked

him the next day Yona woke up in the hospital with Kim Soho sitting beside her he reassured her that the doctor said she was totally fine she freaked out and asked him what he was Doing there Soo explained that they were taking turns nursing her since it was partially their fault they should have taken better care of the search team members but they had been focused on other things she asked him why he was so stubborn initially she thought he was just some talented guy but now she realized she had misunderstood him remembering hajin she

asked if he had come too suho looked confused and she got embarrassed and changed the subject In the next scene Yona thanked hajin for saving her life and she promised to repay him as a result hain's SP increased and his skills upgraded he realized this was the first time he had earned so many points from a single action while pondering this someone called him it was Park soak before listening to anything Park soak began to beg saying if hajin wanted to withdraw from the contract he should reconsider hajin Interrupted saying he wasn't going to withdraw

and showed him a suitcase stating he wanted to invest in sh entertainment Park soak was confused hajin had posted a jinsang on Violet society and received 400 million1 he invested 250 million in packhorse Masters and another 150 million in sh entertainment the growth of sh entertainment was just as certain as pack hor Masters Park soak apologized and said he couldn't accept such a large Sum of money hajin explained that he was giving this money so they could both grow bigger and asked him to buy a magic pouch and an SUV for him hajin told him

to speak casually with him Park suak initially refused saying he couldn't speak casually to an investor hajin then threatened to cancel the invest deal Park soak finally agreed to speak casually hajin asked him to accompany him to the convenience store when they arrived Park suak asked why hajin was Scratching lottery tickets all of a sudden hajin replied that he was still a minor and couldn't claim the prize without a guardian his luck was in effect and he won a prize of 20 million1 Park suak couldn't believe it and freaked out hajin decided to invest that

money as well and asked him to send an edited version of the contract in the next scene we see a warehouse where a shadow was moving and someone appeared from the Shadows it was a kid telling His captain that they had started making moves he mentioned that the pack horse Master had been listed and asked what they should do next the captain replied that they would just take the item and leave the rest the kid added that someone was buying packhorse Master stocks investing 3 million 10 million and then suddenly 250 million he questioned whether

that was too much money for someone to invest in a guild that didn't even have a guild page the Captain said to forget about it and focus on what they had to do the kid mentioned that Cub's midterm exams were starting tomorrow with the hot topics being rank one Kim Soho and rank two Shin Jong hack he noted that a few of their members were planning to infiltrate and asked if she was also planning to participate she said yes and hoped there would be someone useful time flew by and cu's practical week of midterm started

during this week Cube Opens up to Hero employment agencies like guilds and the association as well as the families of the cadets a huge crowd from all over the world gathered and reporters were broadcasting the event multiple drones were flying around and hajin also received some drones from Park soak he sent these drones over Cube to increase the probability of finding Intruders someone bumped into hajin and he quickly apologized it was the captain of the chameleon troop he almost forgot That she would also come for the Practical exams he stared at her then quickly realized

he had locked eyes with her for too long to avoid looking suspicious he decided to say something he told her she was very pretty there was a moment of silence then she quickly turned and moved forward she then told her men that the person she passed earlier saw her through the perception blocking item and asked to investigate him not only Heroes who came to scout For trainees but also the chameleon troop are here their objective is to scout either Kim Soho or Shin Jong haak since Soho doesn't fit in with their beliefs he is disqualified

and they focus on Shin Jong Haack That's How The Story Goes their infiltration shouldn't cause much of an issue but if the story changes and they start fighting the exam site security Heroes it won't end with just one or two people dying meanwhile the heroes didn't see any suspicious Persons Another Hero suggested not to let their guard down as enemies could be anywhere one hero said they could just eliminate them before they become a problem while they were talking a member of the chameleon troop was impressed that some someone saw through the perception blocking feature

and noticed their Captain he was finally getting interested as he had seen only weaklings here a kid named dren was gathering information about hjin the dels began in The second Arena the commentator announced that the first match would soon begin and mentioned that it was a duel in which a nomination ticket had been used hajin was heading towards the arena when Yona stopped him hajin told her his duel was first so he was heading for the arena she quickly called a guy and offered 100 top grade bullets to hajin she told him he couldn't use

them during tests but otherwise he could use them however he wanted she also Mentioned that she wasn't trying to call it even with just something like this for saving her life it was just a gift she added that she hadn't told anyone that he helped her during the Demonic human incident hjin told her to keep hiding it as it might get complicated if Lilith's other demonic humans found out about him yuon said she understood that he was hiding his power but she told told him he couldn't win the Practical exam like that she asked if

he knew who His opponent was in the waiting room Kim hak Was preparing for his duel and was determined to crush Kim hajin a drone dug into hajin past and found that he used to be an orphan and had no relatives he was admitted to a military school at the age of six he was a low intermediate rank student who didn't do anything special to attract attention and eventually got into Cube the captain wondered how he saw past the perception blocking items and noticed her as she Was was pondering one of her group members arrived

he greeted her his name was jang-yang the captain asked what he had found he replied that he found nothing they were all weaklings the drun asked if he had seen any Cadets who left an impression he mentioned there was one second year first grade student and nothing else the announcer announced the fight between hajin and Kim hak jungyong remembered the guy who had noticed the captain and decided to check it out Meanwhile the heroes were enjoying themselves eating and not receiving any threats one of the heroes noticed someone looking at them and smiling she notified

the others who thought maybe he was just a fan Cadet rank 19 martial artist Kim hak entered the arena hero stated that while hak wasn't in the top 10 he was still pretty decent checking his opponent she found Kim hajin was ranked 934 The Duel was about to begin hajin Teased hak asking why he looked so Fierce and telling him to chill out which only made angrier Kim hak's specialty was using the Mana within his body to manifest an invisible layer of enhanced protective energy training ammo usually couldn't penetrate his armor the match started and

Kim hak charged at hajin with full speed hajin prepared activated his skill bullet time he had increased the amount of time he could maintain it he could hold it for at Least a minute which allowed him to catch up with Horax speed Horax smashed the ground but hjin dodged and started running with Horax chasing him and throwing punches at that moment hajin pulled out his gun and shot at hak hak confident in his enhanced protective energy thought he would easily deflect a mere bullet to his surprise the bullet broke through his protection layer and hit

him he couldn't believe what had just happened the audience was in shock Wondering how a bullet could pierce his protective layer hak was still processing this when multiple bullets shot at him from different directions he was in pain and barely moving hajin had infused Mana into his bullets using his stigma giving them anti-demon properties hak was barely hanging on which made him angrier he smashed the whole Arena and hajin jumped into the air hajin threw a knife and told hak to dodge it before it could hit him hak quickly dodged it but Hajin mocked him

saying it was just a normal knife and shot more bullets hak fell to the ground trembling hajin moved forward to finish the battle everyone's eyes were on him as he was about to pull the trigger but then he stopped kak was confused people wondered if hajin had run out of bullets they both looked at each other and then hajin surrendered everyone was so confused The Duel ended with Kim hak winning but he wasn't happy about it a hero asked for others Impressions of the match she said hajin did well while hak was premature hak should

have dominated in combat but she was impressed with haj's unimaginable firing speed and dynamic visual Acuity that could keep track of Martial artists gifts she wondered if he had some special gift additionally she noted that hjin infused bullets with Mana Another Hero couldn't believe he could Infuse Mana to break through enhanced protective energy as a Cadet other guild Members were informing their guilds about what had just happened in the match after the dels were over jang-yang said he didn't like Kim hajin he scoffed at the idea of a small guy shooting from far away questioning

why the captain would even be interested in someone like that drun mentioned that used demon slaying powers during the battle and said that jang-yang just dislikes him because hajin is a ranged fighter jang-yang said that real battles involve Close combat with murderous intent to pierce death into each other dran asked if he had seen Kim Soho and shin Jong hack Jong Yong replied that both of them looked pretty good he was impressed by Shin Jong haack's distinctive style of immediately aiming for the enemy's vitals without any prior information as for Kim Soo he noted that

suo used a sword dance type of Swordsman ship and felt like he was hiding his true colors when drun brought up hajin again jangang Got mad asking why he was including him drun explained that the power of demon slaying was what their Captain was looking for as they were talking a guard came from behind and asked who he was jungyong didn't like being questioned the guard asked him to leave immediately jungyong flicked the guard on the head killing him instantly drun asked if he had killed the guard jungyong replied yes and drun said that the

captain was going to be mad Meanwhile the captain stood near the railing lost in flashbacks she remembered standing at a grave where she had vowed to find the traitor no matter what and seek revenge she ordered Dr to check on suo Jong Haack and hajin she said that the power of demon slay that could break through demonic bodies and asked to make hajin the top priority dren questioned if it was all right since there wasn't much information on him she dismissed his concern stating That she would meet him personally on the second day of midterms

big guilds were present the cube ranking matches featured a duel between rank three Rachel and rank four chyon the second fight was between rank one Kim Soho and rank eight Yohi people were excited for this match hajin explained that in today's matches naon would likely be defeated by Rachel because it's impossible to beat Rachel with a bow the match between Rachel and naon began naon Confident immediately shot arrows at Rachel who effortlessly dodged them all naon was in shock while the match was ongoing the captain approached hajin and sat beside him hajin recognized her as

a black level criminal wanted by the hero Association the captain of the infamous chameleon troop a strong individual who hid herself under countless names in this world only hajin knew her true identity suddenly a glass of juice spilled on her head hajin was afraid she Might lose her temper meanwhile Rachel won the match and the captain remained calm she said she saw hajin duel with Kim hak and handed him her her card hjin knew she was using a fake name he mentioned that early contact with cadetes was illegal but he accepted the card anyway she

said she couldn't provide details but assured him it would be good for him as she was leaving she told him to contact her hajin wondered why she had come to him Kim suo won his Duel after the duel was over hajin retrieved his drone and decided to check it in the dorm then he heard someone crying it was naon hajin remembered this event from his story Kim Soo Comforts naan because she's crying tears of defeat this event would Mark the beginning of Nan's attraction to Kim Soo Kim Soo never gives up and he doesn't let

anyone else give up either naon might also not give up on her bow because of Kim soo's encouragement hajin Got an idea he messaged naan saying he saw her duel and that he was right a sword fits her perfectly he recommended she changed her course she was speechless then Kim suo arrived and told her he had been looking for her for a while she turned into full rage mode becoming furious at hodgin the first semester midterm practical duels were now complete after the duel hajin checked the footage from his drone he saw how jungyong killed

a security guard Hajin questioned whether he was from the chameleon troop he was shocked to see that there are people who can kill without any hesitation for their own pleasure villains who possess transcendental strength just like Heroes hudin knew he couldn't just focus on the villains that appeared appeared only in the existing novel story based on the co-author changed novel he didn't know what kind of villain might appear the next practice exam was a monster battle Aage introduced herself and explained the conditions of the exam she showed the place where participants would fight monsters that

would be summoned by Mages she mentioned that this exam would be much more dangerous than any training session because the summoned monsters would have the same attack Tendencies as real monsters the monsters would not disappear immediately even if the Mages canel the summon their lives might be in danger if they refus to yield out of Pride the evaluation would be based on how long they lasted and how calmly they reacted team one was called the rest of the cadets were observing The Examiner told them to observe carefully and if they thought there could be a

better way to fight they could express their views the exam started and the Mages summon monsters each Cadet received different monsters Cadet huki received an advanced goal they battled fiercely while the other Cadets observed team two entered The area and defeated their monsters easily naan shot an arrow into the sky and it fell on the monster defeating it Yu Yona also defeated her monsters effortlessly next was hajin turn he received a crom wolf he took cover and shot multiple bullets he thought if this continued there would be no issue suddenly the emergency alarm went off

everyone was confused Heroes received an alert he wondered if Intruders had entered the exam Hall A hero ordered everyone to stay on alert Another Hero hoped there would be nothing serious suddenly someone appeared from behind the hero noticed it it was an intruder they prepared for battle but suddenly the Water started moving like crazy a huge water spout tornado appeared out of nowhere examiners alerted the cadetes that the exam had been stopped and they had to evacuate immediately hajin couldn't understand why this was happening all of A sudden an unknown person was approaching the exam

Hall inside the hall hajin was worried why the summons hadn't been cancelled yet he looked for help but found no one nearby he wondered why this happened and why he didn't receive any story change alerts he recalled that he hadn't noticed any changes in the people within the exam building this meant there was an intruder an unknown man entered the building and stood in front of Rachel he Greeted her there were tons of extras like Kim chundong that had never been mentioned in the novel and this was a story that hajin didn't know about out

Rachel called him sir Lancaster and asked where he had been since the London incident that occurred 5 years ago she noticed his eyes and understood that he had sold his soul to a demon frustrated she asked why someone like him a former Imperial Guard Captain would do this he corrected her saying he didn't sell his Soul but that his new Lord took his soul after he was betrayed by the very country he devoted his life to Rachel lifted her sword seeing no point in talking further she charged towards him to attack swinging her sword and

slashing through his body to her shock her sword just passed through his body he explained that this wasn't his real body and that appearing in front of her was just his way of having fun he told her that it was chaotic outside due to The invasion of monsters so no one would be able to help her he mentioned that this was quite different from the usual United Kingdom that only treated the Imperial family as top protection priorities while tens of thousands died without anyone paying attention to them he recalled when he lost his lover he

was in a hurry so he had to say goodbye he turned around and vanished into black smoke from inside that black smoke an assassin emerged he immediately charged Towards Rachel and attacked her she blocked his attack but it was too strong he launched multiple attacks and ultimately some hit her knowing she couldn't win head-on she decided to take a risk and aim for an opening the Assassin struck her hand causing her to drop her sword she fell to the ground but had one last move left she had connected her sword to a Mana string when

the Assassin attempted a final blow she launched her sword towards him Suddenly a wall burst open someone broke through it the Assassin quickly ran towards the Intruder it was hajin who swiftly transformed his Desert Eagle into a shotgun before the Assassin could reach him hajin fired a shot killing him instantly he was amazed that it ended with only one shot but it was expected since it cost 250 SP Rachel couldn't see his face due to the light and wondered why he was there hajin approached her and asked if she Was okay which she definitely wasn't

he used some bandages on her wounds hudgin told her that if he had been a little late she would never have been able to wield a sword again he then noticed her blood and realized he finally had the main character's blood she thanked him for helping her an instructor came and asked if they were okay a mage informed them that two Cadets in the next area were severely injured the professor wondered who could have done such a Thing in the next scene a hero was sitting near the shore Another Hero approached and asked about The

Intruders the first hero said the Intruder got away he explains that a huge sea monster had appeared and the Intruder was able to use brute force to chase it away the next day the cube monster incident became well known all over the world and the midterms were postponed both classes and tests were cancelled and the cadetes received an unexpected 10-day holiday Everyone was delighted and started making plans but the professors weren't happy about it hjin received a message from the co-author Alex Lancaster after losing his loved one became a demonic human increasing his potential danger

hajin remembered creating him and knew his objective would be to conquer the UK he was worried that such a strong villain had appeared much sooner than in the original story he regretted making a greater number of kind characters but Was glad that from this incident he was able to get Rachel blood suddenly someone bumped into him it was naon she made fun of him as she walked to her dormatory mocking hajin about why he would pick a fight if he wasn't going to do anything she received a message an appraisal report from the test Kim

suho wrote that it was a surfar victory but noted that she lacked confidence however he praised her as a talented Archer with exceptional potential and assured her That if she continued to advance on her current path she would become the best hero she got emo reading his appraisal feeling happy that choosing archery was a good decision the next report was from an anonymous person she was excited to read it but as she continued she started getting angry after reading it she became Furious and screamed loudly in the next scene hajin placed evangel's seed on Rachel's

blood it slowly started consuming the blood he knew that if he Fed the blood to the seed Evangel the witch would be borne from it as he touched the seed it suddenly re acted with his body his hand started glowing and he realized it was a second stigma he screamed in pain the next day in the city he was still feeling the pain Park asked him why he looked so down hajin replied that he was just tired he asked Park how his business was going Park said that since he had an SUV now doing business

had become easier and there Were more customers as well he thanked hjin for all of this they reached the entrance of the field and saw that there was a huge crowd it was a guild and and people were amazed to see them the guild members were from essence of the strait Yona was also there hajin wondered if she was there to do field hunting with her Guild members she saw hajin and approached him asking why he was on the field he replied that he was there to hunt he wondered why she was showing Concern he

introduced his agent Park hajin found the combination of Yona and park strange originally he should have been Kim soo's agent yuon finds out that Kim Soo made a contract with par and decided to invest a ton of money into sh as a result it was a great success for both Park and Yona but the problem was whether Yona would invest in sh without Kim Soho in the worst case scenario he might end up blocking Park's bright future she opened the door and sat Inside to accompany hajin he was confused as they were heading to the

location Yona asked about his future hajin asked why she was so interested in his future she clarified asking again what he intended to do after graduation he said he hadn't thought that far she told him the midm was already over and they wouldn't be in Cube in their third year because of their apprenticeship since he didn't have any specific plan she asked if he was interested in Joining essence of the Strait She mentioned that their Guild was constantly in second place because of the Holy grace of God but she assured him that once she became

the captain she would make their Guild the top in the country she promised to support him with tons of high-ranking weapons and artifacts she asked how he liked the off offer hjin told her it was illegal to recruit Cadets before they graduated and that it would be a 5 billion one fine For her Park stopped the car abruptly causing yona's face to slam into the front seat she asked why he had stopped so suddenly he replied that they had arrived at the monsters Point Yona was shocked and asked how a normal agent knew about the

monsters point he explained that April is the month when the monsters inside the field start to get pretty rough and there are smaller monsters that are driven to the vicinity he said he picked this hunting spot After considering hain's sniping skills he told her his agent was pretty capable hajin left for the hunt you Yona got out of the car park asked her what she planned to do she told him her Guild members would be there soon before leaving she asked for his business card days after the midterms classes resumed and the cadets returned to

cube hajin was once again ranked first in theories with Rachel in second after punishing Kim hak in the Practical exams the group That used to bully hajin became quiet he felt it was the most peaceful day since joining Cube suddenly a punch narrowly missed his face it was naon Furious demanding an explanation about the report the annoying tone in the report was obviously hajin he told her he wrote it to help her she retorted that she didn't ask for his help then she challenged him to a bet to prove his skill in long-range combat hajin

agreed but added that if she lost she would Have to quit archery she accepted his condition hajin then told told her he would also use a bow instead of a gun and asked for some time to learn archery hatchin current Master Sharpshooter is at grade seven if he gets to grade six with remaining time then he should be able to win easily naon was avoiding reality to the extent that she thinks that just because she's talented at using swords she's also talented at using bow just saying nice things to her Won't help her because she

needs to get stronger meanwhile in the chameleon troop secret base all the members gathered to discover hjin one of them was impressed by hajin anti-magic Bullet and the others were also satisfied with his performance one member asked the captain since when they had become a group that conducts analyses before recruiting someone another member noted Haj Jin's potential and liked the fact that he had no parents or lover a female Member questioned the relevance of this he explained that having no one close would make it easier for hajin to indulge in their activities another member reminded

them that their top priority was to catch and punish traitors if hajin could help them achieve that then they should recruit him the female member mentioned that even if they recruited him the only empty spot they had was the black position she asked if they really wanted To give that spot to a newbie the position recognized as the strongest and once held by the one who betrayed the former Captain jang-yang jumped in saying he could take the position of black other members immediately objected calling it foolish Dr suggested they vote the captain told everyone to

raise their hands if they wanted hjin to join join the chameleon troop almost everyone raised their hands eight agreed and two objected jangang wasn't happy about it The captain then showed a girl named Jane an invitation card to a Paris bvip party and ordered her to steal a ring Jane who held the chameleon troops yellow position confidently said that stealing a single ring was nothing for her the travel Club president was glad that everyone was fine after the midterms incident the academic and hunting clubs had been halted due to demonic human incidents the club president

told everyone that this time Their destination would be Paris hajin remembered this Arc an assassination of the Persian multi-millionaire this Arc starts with an assassin organization sending an assassination warning the recipient would be Fran's multi-millionaire bethl despite Beth's peaceful personality and Frugal lifestyle in his Paris Mansion it was all a lie bethl was a wicked fraud known as barble he had accumulated his wealth through all sorts of Nefarious Deeds Though he had managed to escape being thought so far the darkness' footprint found was a real deal since he was a wanted man he couldn't ask

the police for help and he didn't have enough time to hire protection he was in a dire situation one day bethl had an amazing idea when he saw some Cube cadetes visiting Paris at a party the travel Club president was talking with someone when bethl overheard that he was searching for accommodation where all The cadets could stay together bethl then suggested that they could all stay in his mansion in the next scene naon and Kim Soho were seen together the travel Club president confirmed everyone's presence and asked them to draw lots to make pairs according

to the novels Yona and Kim Soho were supposed to team up and the rest would pair accordingly they reached Paris via the teleportation port hajin and naon ended up as a pair hajin asked why she was Complaining since she was the one who drew the lot she was so mad at her luck a girl came and hugged the club president the other Cadets weren't too happy about it the club president introduced his girlfriend Natasha and told everyone that she was going to be the team doctor everyone went their own way and decided to gather together

by 700 p.m. naan asked where he was going hajin replied that he wanted to eat first and asked if she was tagging along She told him they were teammates hajin told her to follow him she asked if he knew where to go and hajin told her he had done some research before coming here he took her to a fancy restaurant naon was amazed and asked how he had made a reservation at such a place he told her he had his ways and handed her a menu to pick from hajin looked outside and noticed a familiar

face he immediately got up and went outside wondering if the story had changed or if An unknown character had appeared he saw a couple and recognized the girl wondering what yunga was doing in Paris upon seeing him she freaked out hajin asked her what she was doing in Paris but she pretended not to know him he wondered why she was ignoring him as she hid behind her boyfriend hajin received a system alert and apologized to her for mistaking her for someone else he opened his laptop and saw story change alerts due to anonymity Jane and

Yuna had Become acquainted which caused Yuna to appear in this chapter hajin understood why she was here Jane and Yuna were both in the Holy grace of God and had participated in several missions experiencing various incidents together for Yuna Jane was the only person she called a friend but at the most critical moment Jane had decided to betray yunga a room was on fire yunsung was in a dire State and asked Jane why she had betrayed her Jane's face began to melt With a smirk she replied that she thought it would be fun Jane's true

identity was the chameleon troops yellow Jane valerine a villain talented in stealing and making disguises after leaving the restaurant hajin told Nan that they should split up now and suggested she visit a place she wanted to see he mentioned that the ball starts at 5:00 p.m. and if he wanted to find a good view of the buildings inside he'd have to explore in advance she agreed With him and he reminded her not to get lost at the ball all the VIP guests arrived Yona and Kim Soho were also there and people mistook them for celebrities

Yona remarked that the effort she spent dressing Kim Soho was worth it hajin was standing outside on the rooftop when he saw yunga as well there was no major development until until he noticed a Mana portal he knew things were going too smoothly the only people who could create portals like That artificially would be demonic humans specifically strong ones favored by powerful demons and possessing strong Mana the Demonic human who opened that portal was already hiding somewhere in the party hajin received a story change message a judgment point there were too few people targeting the

mythical great item which led to a demonic group the evil Society getting involved in this chapter thus changing the story Society a demonic human group led by the Presumed Kim hacko was Notorious for Relic plundering terrorist attacks and causing Wars in various countries around the world the number of chaotic incidents caused by evil Society was uncountable hudin was really mad at the co-author he called ather and put on a mask meanwhile someone was choking a waiter and knocking out everyone in the vicinity this person approached a locker and opened it with his eyes it was

Jane in Disguise searching for home ring she Found it but just as she was about to reach it Yuna appeared from behind and called out to her the person whose disguised Jane War was called urine Yuna asked him what was doing there and how he would leave his position she tried to approach him then suddenly Yuna grabbed him from behind lifted him and gave him a sulex the impact destroyed a wall causing everyone to wonder if there had been an explosion emerging from the smoke was Jane with yunsung chasing her Jane asked how Yuna noticed

her Yun charged at her and Jane blocked the attack Yuna replied that she couldn't help but notice how her closest Aid spoke and walked Jane remarked that she didn't recall Yuna being so meticulous in the past and to provoke her mentioned that being betrayed by her must have Hur a lot suddenly yona's whip lashed out grabbing yuna's hand Soho and Yona readed themselves for the fight Yuna asked who they were and Yona replied That they were cadetes from the cube instructing them to put their weapons down yunsung used her talent to burn down the whip

shocking Yona Jane quickly attacked yunga but she managed to dodge they exchanged multiple strikes but yunsung delivered a devastating blow causing Jane to fall and shattering her sword Yuna prepared for a final blow but Kim suho intervened and blocked her attack yunsung told them to get lost but suho insisted he couldn't just stand Still when someone was in need enraged yunga struck him in the commotion Jane went missing and was seen running away as Jane was leaving a black smoke suddenly surrounded the area everyone was confused and a demonic human managed to get their hands

on Homer's ring hjin watched everything unfold from outside meanwhile naon was getting increasingly annoyed as she kept getting lost ending up in the same spot repeatedly she tried calling Yona but there was no answer she Wondered what Yona could be doing back at the scene yunsung demanded the demonic human put the ring down immediately the Demonic human replied that it wasn't an item yunga should have hajin realized that now that the evil Society had the ring there was a very low chance of retrieving it even if everyone worked together so he decided to move to

plan B he called for ather and threw it towards the Demonic human swiftly snatching the ring from her Hands she was left bewildered unable to comprehend what had just happened suddenly Yuna charged at the Demonic human creating a diversion hjin got the ring but then felt another presence something approached at lightning speed it was a second demonic human who asked hajin where he thought he was going with the ring hajin knew this situation was going to be Troublesome he introduced himself as sidas and told hajin that he was from the evil Society he Complimented hajin

on his technique for stealing the ring but then insisted that hajin should hand it over since he was asking nicely hjin rejected his offer cidus pulled out a lightsaber and slashed toward hajin a dark red flame appeared over the roof as hajin barely dodged the attack the Demonic human explained that it was a magic sword costing at least several million as long as the user has Mana to infuse into it it can be an incredibly powerful weapon One of the benefits that demonic humans gain through their contracts is immense mana and that sword is the

best possible weapon for a demonic human sidus launched another attack but hajin managed to dodge it again hajin suggested they talk but Sid Dia scoffed asking why he would talk when he could simply kill hajin and take the ring he mocked hajin claiming that from a glance he could tell hajin was weaker than those inside fighting he ridiculed hajin Reliance on a gun stating that all hajin could do was Dodge and questioning how he could face a demonic human sidus launched another attack but his sword didn't work confused he couldn't understand what had just happened

hudin told him that the sword wouldn't work today because hudin extreme luck had weakened the magic sword sidus rorted that even without a sword he could easily kill him in response hajin prepared his stigma and changed it into Light Mana when the Demonic human almost reached him hajin fired a bullet from his shotgun in the next scene naan who had given up on finding the Party location after getting lost noticed a police car and wondered why it was so noisy no one from the party had contacted her either as she pondered the situation hajin suddenly

appeared and sat beside her she freaked out and asked what he was doing there hajin said he was a little tired and then passed out In the next scene hajin was confused about his whereabouts then he remembered that he was at an exam center after finishing his csat exam someone called out to him from behind it was hajin parents he asked why they had come all the way there and told them he had failed his exam he was crying but his mother reassured him that it was okay hjin woke up from his dream and found

himself on a bed he wondered where he was upon hearing his voice Soho and naon Entered the room naon told him it had been painful to carry him back here then she teased him asking why he had been crying suo told her to wait outside for now Natasha asked hajin if he was feeling better she informed him that he had shown certain symptoms of exhaustion hajin asked where they were she explained that they were in the Mansion of a French multi-millionaire named bethl hajin realized that the assassination incident was about to Start soon Natasha advised

him to rest and took naon with her as they left suho inquired if hajin was really okay hajin replied that he was fine he read the news about demonic humans attacking the ball and felt relieved that no one had been killed hajin asked about the incident Soo told him that nothing bad had happened and the Demonic humans had run away before the heroes arrived then hajin noticed Soho's wounds hajin told Soho that he should take care of himself as well because he was the protagonist he recalled how suho had run fiercely towards yunga at that

time yunga had really intended to kill him if the Demonic humans had appeared a little later they might have been severely injured hajin reflected that he had written Soho as a protagonist who walks on the good path but he realized that the protagonist tries to do only good and righteous Deeds he wondered if Soho Would be able to overcome the crisis of being controlled by an unknown being and if he would be able to send him back to his original World suho told told hajin that he was no protagonist he added that if he was

a protagonist then hajin was also the protagonist of his own story in fact everyone is the protagonist of Their Own Story then suho told hajin that he had seen the report he wrote for Naan and mentioned that he thought it was rather harsh hjin said that what he Wrote was true and that naan doesn't have a natural talent for archery he explained that he made the bet so she would give up on archery Soo argued that archery was the path naon had Chosen and and he didn't think it was anyone's place to ask her to

give it up hajin countered that not everything can be solved just by saying nice words he asked what would happen if one tried their best to the very end only to find that all that awaits is despair he then Asked so if he could take responsibility for that suho challenged hajin asking how he could be so sure about naon and if he could take responsibility for his judgment hajin responded that he had thought about this more than anyone else and had observed her for much longer than anyone else as well that's why he claimed to

know more about her situation than Soo did suddenly they heard a voice from outside hajin realized it was naon she had used one of her skills stealth Naun barged into the room flustered by what she had just overheard hajin saying Yona asked what had happened naon replied that nothing had happened and went to sleep she told herself to calm down and just ignore it she remembered hajin words about observing her and mumbled about it suddenly someone someone screamed Yona woke up Furious and told her to shut up naon clarified that this time it wasn't her

a mate had screamed after seeing that bethl was Assassinated everyone came out of their rooms after hearing the screams suho jumped from the railing hjin saw him leaping from the third floor Soho reached Beth's room and saw him lying dead on his bed the maid was calling for help after everyone gathered Natasha checked bethl and confirmed that he was dead Beth's Butler was distraught asking who would do such a thing to such a kind man everyone was saddened Natasha told the butler to call the police and Ambulance and ordered all Cadets to go to their

rooms hajin turned on the lights Natasha asked why he would do that hajin approached Beth's body to examine his wounds but Natasha stopped him from going near the crime scene hajin pulled out his gun and pointed it at Natasha everyone was shocked thinking he had gone mad hajin declared that Natasha was lying because bethl wasn't dead he explained that bethl deceives people with his fake death to escape a Crisis he's in and later becomes the greatest scammer after joining the Demonic humans hajin revealed that he had only written Beth's backstory about his fake death and

didn't know about it until bethl became the greatest scammer he thought it would be best to take him down now hjin knew it would be difficult to explain his involvement to everyone and didn't know what kind of uncertainty this would cause in the story but he remembered soo's words about everyone Being the protagonist in their own story hajin told everyone that bethl wasn't dead and was deceiving them by acting Natasha insisted she was the doctor and had confirmed his death hajin pointed out that the wound was too shallow he noted that the next sign of

death would be excessive blood loss yet only the Fatal hit he took was to the heart and his blood had soaked not only the huge mattress but also flowed onto the ground he then showed a poster of a con artist Listed on the global Wanted list who looked strikingly similar to bethl Natasha asked the butler if he had called the police saying that instead of arguing they should get the police and doctors since their opinion would be trustworthy hajin pulled out his gun and pointed it at bethl everyone was shocked Natasha asked what he was

doing he said he'd be shooting after counting to three hajin counted one she freaked out asking him to stop since bethl was already a Corpse he counted to she said they had already called for the police what more did he want he counted three and she started crying blocking him from shooting bethl and confessing that he was her father everyone was speechless hajin then shot at the butler ordering him to get Heroes instead of the police the police arrested Natasha and heroes caught bethl the assassination incident was a self-fabricated scenario set up by bethl and

Natasha bethl who was wanted All over Europe had planned this to escape from the police and heroes Natasha had luckily managed to bring one of the cube Cadets which contributed to his plan the plan was known as coming after the suspended animation while the ingredient to put someone in suspended animation was very expensive Natasha who was a doctor in Cube was able to obtain it easily The Next Step was simple they just had to create a fake death scenario the ambulance workers wouldn't be able To tell whether he was faking death all the police involved

in the case were already bribed by bethl a similarl looking corpse was prepared to switch with him after that CU Cadets gave testimony and their words were 100% trustworthy with that bethl became a officially dead on paper but he was to be reborn under a new name however that was no longer the case Yona approached haene and asked if he was a Sherlock or something since he had solved both the Demonic human incident and this one she suggested he open a detective agency she asked how he knew the face of a criminal he said it

was just a Family Matter upon mentioning Family Matters he wondered about Kim chuong's family history in the next scene at an evil Society Hideout a demonic human explained that an unknown man wearing a leopard mask had appeared out of nowhere and stolen the ring and even sidas had lost to him she said he didn't seem like a demonic human and Wasn't like a hero either the leader instructed her to investigate Heroes and hunters and to report back to him first if she found any leads he used his skill to manipulate gravity and asked her why

she was advertising that she was a demonic human in that form she apologized and turned back into her human form he then ordered her to find the masked man as quickly as possible and asked if she had retrieved the lightsaber that sidas had been using Meanwhile hajen had already taken the lightsaber he wondered how to use it and found that the weapon was useless to him since he couldn't control magic he thought it could sell for a high price but didn't feel right about selling it the next item was Homer's ring it required a certain

amount of magic to be infused into it to activate its modifications however there was no need for hjin to do that since he could easily change some words with his SP Points this Relic could increase magic powers and intelligence and it wasn't a bound item so he could transfer it to someone else compared to someone like hajin who didn't have much magic power someone like Kim Soo or naon would be able to put it to better use it would be more beneficial for naon since she had the highest magic power he wondered how much his

stats had improved he checked but other than speed nothing had changed significantly however there was an Increase in his gifts hajin felt like he had hit a wall he realized he needed to work harder to break through his limits still he was confident that he would be able to beat naon before closing his laptop he remembered he was supposed to find out about Kim chuong's past there was no way the co-author would leave Kim chuong's past blank he must have written something about it Kim chundong had joined the cube and even though he might have

been an extra in hain's novel he Should have been Elite in the real world this meant there was a high chance that his parents weren't ordinary he wondered what the co-author had written about his past he came across a detective agency troubleshooter eugin huk he was known to be the best at finding all sorts of information but was also expensive since he was very good at finding information hajin thought it might be worth it but then he remembered he didn't have the money because he was investing it Evangel's seed started to move and hajin realized

it was feeding time in the next scene in Norway hajin was enjoying the scenery when when suddenly an ice ball hit his face naon was making fun of him the club activities that had been paused after the Sven incident had resumed the hunting club rented a mountain cabin in the mountains of Norway and organized an event to celebrate the resumption of Club activities the club president gathered everyone and explained the Rules the seniors had hidden flags with numbers in various parts of the forest and there were rewards linked to the numbers on the flags the

higher the number the better the rewards she told everyone to draw a lots to form pair and unsurprisingly naon and hajin were paired up again naon told him to follow her and asked if he was not cold in that thin jacket he said that it was a functional jacket a present from Rachel after the midterm incident he regretted Not creating more characters like her naon found a flag with the number one on it but it was positioned very high up hajin said who is dumb enough to climb that high but naon had already started climbing

hajin pulled out a knife and tied it to a wire naon asked if he really thought that was going to work it wasn't just any wire it had some of stigma Mana in it which he could control the knife hit the flag causing it to fall naon came running excited about the Reward the reward was yuna's contact number hajin was really disappointed and gave it to naon she couldn't believe he didn't want the phone number of Korea's number one Guild's Vice Captain she was happy but then refused his reward in Cube Yona wondered how hajin

knew the faces of criminals the wanted criminal bethl had committed crimes across Europe and shouldn't have any connections with hajin but she considered the possibility that hajin had memorized the faces of All globally wanted criminals why would he do that she formulated a hypothesis imagining a scene in her mind what if some wanted criminals had done terrible things to him in his past what if because of that he memorized the global list of wanted criminals to find the culprit she speculated that hain's parents might not have just died but were murdered perhaps that was why

he hid his powers so he could kill the culprits without them knowing he was After them it was just a hypothesis but if it turned out to be true she saw an opportunity to put herself in a greatly advantageous position when trying to recruit hajin to her guilt however she was frustrated about how she was going to confirm it in the next scene Yona contacted eugin huk who was her uncle when Jin huk picked up the phone he realized it was his niece Yona told him she wanted to hire him to investigate someone she gave

him hajin information And asked him to investigate hajin past and where he had been with Jin hu's ability to experience the past he could find anything hjin found two flags for him the reward for the fourth flag which was a VR headset was more useful than the first flag after the competition everyone was having a feast hudin was cooking and told everyone to rest and enjoy the meal since his aunt used to run a Korean barbecue restaurant he was really an expert at it one of the Seniors mentioned that their end of term exams would

start soon she cautioned everyone not to trust anyone during the exams they weren't just tough she had seen friendships break up over them since the exams are directly connected to their results everyone is very sensitive she asked if they knew about the repeat class and warned them about it the repeat class as the name suggests is for Cadets whose grades didn't make the cut and who couldn't advance to the Next class there are around 200 Cadets in each grade and about 20% of them have made contracts with demons or belong to high-risk groups problems during

the end of term exams often stem from them now that the co-author is involved it is possible for the percentage to increase the senior told hajin to take a break but he said he was okay and had been eating while cooking after dinner they were chatting and playing games everyone was teasing naon and she was furious With hajin after that hajin stepped outside feeling good for the first time in a long while he tried to smoke but then remembered he had quit since arriving here he recalled the days of his previous life just then naan

came from behind and asked if he used to smoke before she joked that he must have been a real thug and probably had tattoos hajin denied everything she looked at him and asked if he was confident about winning he asked if she Was confident about giving up archery she said she didn't think she would lose hajin asked if she was going to cry like she did earlier then she showed him an article about him in France it described how a Korean Sherlock caught a globally wanted con artist she said she couldn't believe they were calling

a dumb smoker a Sherlock then she ran away teasing him but stopped curious about what smoking felt like in the next scene we see an orphanage Jin huk was using his ability And waiting outside he noticed a kid who was holding a little child she placed that child at the door and left he tried to get closer but the density of the past was too high then his ability got cancelled he wondered who she was he returned to his office his assistant asked him how the target was this time around in response he said it

was unusual this time but he quickly ran towards the bathroom he went back to the day when the target entered the Orphanage to take a look but he didn't see the target's parents instead some kid left him at the orphanage he couldn't find out much about hain's past because it was covered in a thick fog he needed to find out more about hajin it would would take a while even if he was doing this task for free because of his niece his assistant opened the door and said he needed to do it even if he

didn't want to because another request to look into hain's past came in what's Worse is that this time it's coming from the top rank of a violent Society from a red diamond rank purchaser on top of that the letter was written in a very polite Manner and offered lots of money he was sure this request was from the chameleon troop he understood there was really something about hjin in the next the instructor told everyone that the finals would be in 4 weeks he warned the cadets that the Practical exams would be much harder than the

midterms and that They would be tested on what they had learned about being a hero this semester huene knew about the exam unlike the midterms which were more entertaining the finals didn't have a prepared Arena or audience the finals would be held on a remote island in Korea a survival exam would be conducted on an island full of monsters and beasts if the co-author gets involved a lot of changes could occur and there are many variables besides the co-author he needed to be on Guard all the time the professor said he couldn't reveal all the

details but numerous instructors from middle class to high class would be going all out to ensure the exam location safety they just needed to focus on the exams while hajin was packing his bag naon came up from behind and asked if he had forgotten about their archery B in response he reminded her that if she lost she would have to quit archery and told her not to cry after you lose at The cubes Archery Center they were about to start their match when hajin asked why all the other cadetes were there leonan said they were

doing something fun with just the two of them and they needed to have an audience for this Le youngan wasn't even embarrassed about what happened earlier Shin jhack pulled his hair back and asked hajin if he had asked naan to give up archery if she lost he asked what would happen if hajin lost and if he would quit the cube naon Annoyed by all the chatter told everyone to shut up she explained that the objective of the match would be to hit a flying Target they would start from 100 m and every time they succeeded

they would add an additional 50 m and continue shooting looking at hajin naon asked if he was scared because it seemed difficult hajin replied confidently that it seemed easier than he thought which annoyed naon even more they prepared for the match and naon took the first shot Easily hitting the target she looked at hajin expectantly but hajin was so surprised by her success that he forgot to shoot and asked for another chance everyone was speechless and burst out laughing Shin Jong hack said they should kick hajin off the stage naon remarked that even his posture

was a mess hudin then took his stance to shoot while naon had a perfect posture that didn't matter to hajin one doesn't become a top Archer just by learning posture perfectly That's just a basic requirement in this world the power known as Talent determines who is top grade and who is not Hudgins Talent is Master sharpshooter he took the shot and hit the target shocking everyone he was really happy in the next scene a bunch of kids gathered to see the hero's disciple the child genius chyon the hero was in disbelief and asked her if

she was serious about changing her weapon he wondered if it was because of her mother Naan replied that there was no reason for it she just wanted to change she said a genius like her would probably be able to master archery if she became one despite being given the best magic sword by her her master naon apologized to him he was Furious and told her not to call him Master since he didn't have any disciples who changed their paths so easily after calming down he said that if that was her decision he wouldn't stop her

but asked if that was really What she wanted in the present hajin hit another Target without any issue the distance had already reached 400 m other archers present couldn't believe that hajin was keeping up with her and he had surpassed their personal bests someone mentioned that not only only was he keeping up but he was also shooting immediately after naon hit her Target they commented that it would be impressive to hit one or two shots but facing a veteran in archery and all the Psychological pressure Kim hajin still looked very relaxed they said if this

kept going Kim hajin would win shinjan hack was very angry at the current situation naon took a shot but missed the bullseye hajin told her that he had already said she wasn't suitable for archery she replied to this cheap provocation by telling him to to shut up and shoot the arrow naon didn't have a calm personality she got angry quickly and was rattled by the slightest Provocation it was natural that she wasn't suitable to be an Archer hajin provoked naon saying she was scared to fight using swords naon visibly angry told him in a serious

tone to watch his mouth hajin responded that it looked like that to him he continued saying that was why she tried to rationalize things thinking she was as talented with bows as she was with swords h pressed further saying that with her current level she wouldn't be able to defeat a Single demonic human to avenge her family naon took the shot but missed her Target leaving everyone shocked naon lost to hajin in the next scene Yona was searching for naon she found her sitting on a bench alone and asked what she was doing there naan

asked if she had heard about what happened she told Yona that hajin brought up her family again and wondered why he keeps acting like that she acknowledged that he had helped her before and while they weren't close she Had thought he wasn't a bad person Yu Yona wondered what hajin would gain from this she remembered that she needed both hajin and naon in her Guild and if their relationship worsened it would be Troublesome Yona suggested that hajin acted this way because he doesn't have a family and he might identify with naon situation she said that

maybe he wants naon to understand him and that he wants the best for her Yona advised her to think about it naon remembered when her Brother asked her why she she was changing her weapon she had told him she was getting bored of the sword he patted her head affectionately and told her that no matter what path she took he would always support her however he asked her to promise that when she grew up she would truly consider what she wanted to do she promised him she would hajin s SP points increased by 253 leaving

him confused about why he gained so many points meanwhile naon Stood up and walked away with Newfound confidence Jin huk told Yona that there was something suspicious about Kim hajin he promised to investigate further but warned her that hajin might be connected to an illegal organization he decided not to mention the chameleon troop he asked if she really wanted to know about hajin past she replied that she had already made up her mind and was determined to bring him into the essence of The Straits excited by her resolve he Assured her that he would put

in more effort for his niece rumors about the shooting competition quickly spread and even the instructor called hajin afterward while at the training center hajin noticed someone was there he took a look and saw naon holding a sword she saw hajin and quickly hid the sword creating an awkward situation hajin mentioned her hair asking if she cut it because of him she angrily replied that it was worm and she would never do Something over such a trivial thing hajin pleased told her she looked good he said he had also come to train as hajin was

leaving naon watched him thinking he was a swordsman before and and how he had abandoned everything he knew throughout his life to choose different weapons she wondered what kind of feelings he had she used her talent and almost touched the ceiling feeling really happy hajin recommended that she use a sword instead of a bow she Wondered if he had known from the start hajin bought everything he would need for the final exam they would check everyone's belongings before the exam but that was mainly to catch defense tools and weapons as long as he told them

he was bringing everything in case of emergency they would let him keep it evangel's seed was making noise so hajin fed it blood he noticed it had gotten bigger a newly born evelle would look like a child around three or four years Old he thought he might be able to raise her if he gave her a different look like that of a cat or a dog he petted the seed meanwhile in a hotel and soul Jane asked the captain if she really wanted to disguise herself as a Cadet and infiltrate the final exams the captain

confirmed saying there was someone whose abilities she personally wanted to see and something she wanted from The Exam location Jane agreed and used her talent to transform the captain into a cube CET Providing details about personality speech patterns and other nuances Jane expressed her unease about this plan but the captain reassured her that there was no need to worry in the next scene two girls held another girl's hands asking where she had been yesterday and if she had gotten a boyfriend it was the captain in Disguise she thought it was pretty easy to IM a

Cadet the captain told her friends she didn't have a boyfriend yet hajen standing nearby Noticed her using his observation and reading skills he saw through her disguise shocked he quickly went to his desk hajin wondered why on Earth the captain would come to cube the theory exams ended and the final exams began the captain still disguised as coene remained at Cube after the midterm exams hajin didn't expect her to appear again unsure of her intentions he decided to use this opportunity to gain SP points he acted Friendly and spoke with her but all he received

in return was a soda the instructor then gathered everyone and explained the exam rules the cadetes had to survive on an island for 5 days and earn points cadetes could earn points by defeating monsters on the island or taking points from other cadetes points could also be bought and sold among cadetes Cadets who wanted to obtain the best results could try to steal an instructor's name tag which would be Worth 200 points everyone reached the island and they started forming teams hjin saw Rachel and asked if she wanted to team up he knew that as

long as there was a villain who held grudges against Rachel she would be in the most danger she said she was comfortable being alone but hajin gave her his location just in case as night fell naon was hunting for Monsters a group of monkeys attacked her but she cut them all down with her sword frustrated and unsure of where to go she Wandered around the island killing monsters like like crazy she wondered where she could find food and a place to rest suddenly she saw a light and smelled the aroma of delicious food she immediately

ran toward the light upon arrival saw hajin annoyed that she encountered him first she asked where he got everything hajin explained that knowing how long the test would last he had prepared in advance naon begrudgingly admitted that he was smart Hajin could tell she wanted food but hesitated to ask he offered her food in exch CH for half of her points she agreed prioritizing eating so she could survive longer hajin had hacked into the Island's cameras and as he accessed one he found Rachel she had come across a group that offered her food assuring her

she could eat comfortably and didn't have to worry about the points after a long night hajin woke up but it was still dark he wondered if it was a polar Night naon was still asleep the Evangel seed was moving so hajin petted it and said why are you so cute he put it in his pocket he asked naon if she was still asleep and told her he was taking the tent she didn't respond so Haj disassembled the tent from now on fights between cadetes were allowed however Cadets were not allowed to kill each other Cadets

who thought they were demonic humans weren't actually demonic humans yet demonic humans who were Contracted with actual demons were different and treated as disposable for experimental purposes currently the only dangerous Cadet on the island was a Cadet named J Yun hajin decided to head for Higher Ground his first destination was the Tree of Life located at the center of the island as hajin wandered through the forest someone aimed at him preparing to shoot but Yona stopped her telling her she couldn't mess with that person she mentioned that he was ranked Above 900 cadetes and Yona

told her she couldn't win against him hajin took a jumping stance and she wondered if he was really trying to jump to that height and climb the tree of life he took a deep breath and climbed the tree within seconds she was amazed to see him climb the tree and Yona said rankings didn't apply to someone like him Yu Yona advised her to keep his strength a secret as they might become acquainted in the future hajin used his skill Thousand M eyes to scan for someone and found him he broke a branch from the tree

and carved a message into it with his stigma using his stigma magic he threw it toward the person barely missing him the person picked it up and saw the message now hajin just needed to wait meanwhile naon still in her sleeping bag woke up flustered she remembered hjin words about being cute and went crazy wondering why he would say that she thought maybe a stray cat Or dog had come by or maybe he was talking to himself she wondered what if he had said it to her meanwhile hajin was wondering if someone was talking about

him Rachel was with the group she had joined the previous night this group was part of the failing class that juyun was affiliated with they rejected the points she offered them and shared their food with her they even looked out for her but Rachel felt uncomfortable in the middle of the final exams where other Cadets were trying to raise their grades they didn't seem interested in acquiring points it felt like they were more focused on her than on earning points she knew she had to leave this place quickly ju Yohan called out to Rachel and

told her he had spotted a 10-point grizzly bear he asked if she would help him since he couldn't fight it alone she agreed to help planning to leave afterward they reached the area and juyun told her he saw a bear on a cliff However instead of a bear there was a portal and a demonic human standing in front of it she realized it was not an instructor but a demonic human the Demonic human attacked her but Rachel dodged the attack and saved juyun she asked him if he was okay and he said he was bleeding

and not okay then he quickly ran away leaving her behind she realized he was involved in this she Drew her sword and pointed it at the Dem demic human the Demonic human was ready For another attack and launched it but she dodged again he closed the distance for a close-range fight Rachel was struggling against him but she had improved a lot since last time they exchanged multiple strikes and she found an opening and cut him however her feet were locked and she couldn't move another demonic human sneaked up behind her so she was now facing

two demonic humans suddenly a bullet came flying from the sky and hit the demonic human The second demonic human was angered and launched an attack she couldn't move but suddenly Kim Soo appeared and blocked the attack he signaled naon who was prepared with her bow and she shot an arrow at the Demonic human everyone asked Rachel if she was okay and she thanked them for their help suo found that the Demonic human fled by jumping off the cliff before he got hit by the arrow Soho told her she might get attacked again and advised her

to move With them until they were safely away she agreed while they were leaving Rachel saw something a bullet lying on the ground she picked it up and realized the first shot wasn't from naon Soo asked naon if she had finally decided to use swords she replied that it was just a sub weapon Rachel was lost in thought among the people she knew only hajin used a gun but she had never seen him use a sniper rifle before she wondered how he knew she was in danger and why he Didn't show himself after helping her

naon woke her from her thoughts and asked if she wanted to travel together like a co-op Mission Rachel refused saying she had to leave Soo cautioned her that it was still dangerous out there but she insisted that she had someone she needed to meet in the next scene hajin had gathered 22 points 12 from naan and 10 from Monsters he needed at least 50 points to be safe as he was leaving the captain approached him he Wondered why she was here and if she was there to fight knowing he couldn't defeat her he guessed her

objective was probably just to observe however she pulled her sword clearly indicating that she did want to fight she told him to take out his weapon the probability of hajin winning was close to 0% hajin acted confused and asked her what she was talking about but then he pulled out his ether she told him that if he didn't pull his weapon she would have no choice But to attack him hajin asked why she wanted to fight she said why is he intending to waste time with this nonsense suddenly hajin revealed he had her watch she

was surprised and asked if he was intending to surrender he told her it wasn't his watch it was hers battles between Cadets were won by the person who stole the opponent's watch first and if he pressed the button she would be disqualified hajin returned her watch and told her not to mess with him Again claiming he had gone easy on her the captain was speechless as hajin immediately ran off she asked Jane if she saw what had happened Jane said her drone wasn't working even though half of her senses were gone because of Jane's Powers

she wondered if she have activated the release spell technique hjin successfully escaped from the dangerous situation feeling immense relief and fear from his near death experience he noticed someone behind a Bush and saw that it was Rachel she was glad to have found him hajin asked if she was looking for him she nodded but her stomach growled loudly revealing her hunger hudin shared his food with her Rachel asked what he was doing alone so far from the others he replied that he was wandering around to get points embarrassed to mention that he had saved her

life earlier noticing that she was hurt from fighting a demonic human hajin was about to say something when the Evangel seed in his pants started moving it jumped out of his pocket and landed on Rachel causing her to scream in Surprise she caught the seed and hodin quickly explained that it was an almond seed pet he was Raising Rachel calmed down and handed it back to him and an awkward silence ensued Rachel then asked hajin if he wanted to team up with her for a co-op Mission hajin remarked that she sounded like naon Rachel asked

if naon had already proposed teaming up With him but hajin knowing the story from the novel didn't need to explain further and agreed to team up with her Rachel mentioned she still had a team and asked if he knew who ju Yohan was hajin assured her not to worry about him because he had already arranged things for them meanwhile Shin Jong haak had defeated all of his opponents xuyun was left alone wondering why Jong hack had come there Jong hack threw a branch towards him as a challenge with Coordinates for a specific place when Yun

clarified that it wasn't him who sent the coordinates Jong hack said it didn't matter Jong hack approached Yun expressing his dislike for anyone from the failing class he grabbed Yun by the neck and slammed him against a tree saying that those who don't know their place are like snakes in the next scene Yuna was waiting at the Northwest side of the Island's observation tower a member of her Guild approached and asked Who she was thinking of she replied Kim hajin he asked if Kim suo was her favorite Cadet she confirmed this but added that they

had received some new information two days ago she got a top secret report in the report Yona had evaluated Kim hajin to be even more outstanding than Kim Soho while there was still a chance the information could be false they had already discovered the special circumstances of Kim hajin including his ability to use light Mana Attributes when asked how she was going to verify the report's information she said she had a bait worth 200 points Rachel was sitting in the tent thinking about hodgin she knew he was the one who saved her but she wondered

why he denied it and how he knew she was in danger she remembered the words of the Demonic human Lancaster and was certain that today's attack was orchestrated by him she questioned if she should have died along with her comrades back then in the Next scene a monster was roaming around when hajin took aim and shot it he noted that today's hunt was going smoothly despite Rachel not feeling well in the morning after after a meal she seemed to recover quickly spotting a huge Lake nearby he thought there might be many points to earn there

summoning a light ball he figured it would be easy to lure the creatures in the lake with its shine hjin suddenly sensed someone watching him and quickly asked who it was there Was no response though he couldn't see the person he knew they were skilled at hiding however now that he had discovered them they couldn't escape his sight he shot towards the person and naon barely dodged it revealing herself h asked why she was stalking him she denied following him but couldn't explain why she was hiding her silence confirmed hajin suspicions she then admitted she

was after SAA hajin wondered where SA might be and took out His laptop to search for her naon asked why he suddenly knelt while talking hajin knowing yung's whereabouts from the novel explained that during the first and second days she monitored Kim Soo and during the third and fourth days she watched the other promising Cadets since she was now mon in hajin it meant he was among her list of promising Cadets naon asked him how he made the light sphere hajin curtly told her to shut up if she understood offended naon Retorted that she wasn't

interested in knowing and left hjin felt a bit arrogant but couldn't reveal the truth if he explained about the Mana stigma he would also have to disclose that this world was within a novel after killing several monsters hajin managed to collect 15 points suddenly Yuna appeared in front of him she greeted him mentioning that this was their first meeting since he rejected her offer hjin response was indifferent she explained That she was there to conduct events and test the cadet's abilities she proposed a challenge she would stay in one spot and only use her left

hand while hjin could attack her as much as he wanted if even one attack hit her or made her take a single step he would win her name tag the name tag of an instructor was worth 200 points making it an attractive proposal however the the opponent was the hero yunga making it a daunting challenge she asked if he was ready for The challenge hajin immediately pulled out his gun and shot at her the bullet almost reached her but she blocked it with her bare hand deflecting it she was amazed to see him create a

light sphere and have this much power from a pistol hjin couldn't believe she blocked the strengthened bullet with just her bare hands without using Mana realizing that straightforward attacks wouldn't work hajin pulled out two knives attached to Mana strings and threw them at her she Easily dodged them complimenting his use of knives with pistols hajin shot multiple bullets but she blocked all of them feeling the power behind each shot as she was talking the knives he threw earlier came back at her it was too far for her left hand to reach them but just as

they almost hit her she used her fire skill to burn them hudin knew he couldn't win against her she was fascinated to see him changed the path of knives with Mana and asked what kind Of technique he used hajin decided to leave confusing her she told him to stop and as he noticed she had moved from her spot she was angry and asked if he was treating her proposal as a joke hajin said he was just testing his luck since he couldn't win due to the difference in their strength he gave up and started leaving

though half serious when he said she lost just now he didn't push it further seeing her Fury a captain was watching them drun asked if the Information was correct and she confirmed she then noticed something drun asked what happened and she said she heard a heartbeat the heartbeat of the butterfly sapling which was about to awaken the butterfly sapling is a spirit type monster that leeches off a tree Like A Parasite it appeared on the last day of the exam and was killed by the main characters during that process Kim suo obtained the dust of

the sapling and Rachel received a hint of Enlightenment This was how the original story went however now she had formed a team with hajin to help her Enlightenment she would have to join the fight the problem was that he didn't know when or where it would appear Kim soo's team hunted lots of monsters there were 20 hours left before the exam ended naon asked what he thought of hjin she said he was hiding too much and was suspicious in both the museums and Paris additionally he was pretty high ranked and strong despite His frail-looking body

Soho remembered hain's words when he said he observed naon a lot more than anyone else and just smiled suho acknowledged that hajin did hide a lot of things naon grew irritated asking him to tell her what he knew while they were talking tree roots started attacking them numerous Roots were coming towards them and hajin heard noises of cadets running and defending themselves amidst the chaos hajin told Rachel they needed to find the source and kill the monster he asked her to protect him when they got close to it and she agreed Cadets who felt the

Tremors were likely heading towards the sapling now they ran quickly towards the source where a cocoon was about to open at any moment an instructor asked you if they should intervene since it was an unexpected monster she said it would be fine and that the cadets could handle it on their own the instructor expressed Concern that the monsters were too dangerous but she told him not to underestimate the cadets as they were the seeds of Heroes and heroes always grow during crisis naon cut down the roots with her sword Soho was amazed but advised her

that her cutting power would increase if she circulated her sword energy near the blade she told him to shut up the roots kept coming back no matter how many times they were cut down so Soo decided to head to the main body Something was moving inside the Cocoon and then a butterfly sapling emerged it was huge and flew into the sky sprinkling sapling dust everywhere after inhaling the dust everyone started getting dizzy and lost Consciousness Rachel saw everyone collapsed and wondered how hajin had predicted this in advance he told her he could defeat the butterfly

but she needed to protect him she understood and greed Soho held his breath and noticed movement in the Forest two people came flying towards the butterfly sapling it was hajen and Rachel both wearing masks hjin took aim and shot at the butterfly which barely dodged this angered the butterfly and tree roots came straight towards them Rachel easily cut them down but noticed some roots coming from beneath them she pushed hajin away saving him but a root grabbed Rachel and threw her against a tree hajin was shocked but more Roots came his way Just then Soho

arrived to save him Soho held his breath but breathed little of the Dust he saw Rachel fainted the Evangel seed came out and ran straight towards Rachel Soho still conscious asked hajin if he could defeat the butterfly he offered to help but said he couldn't hold out for long hajin explained that he could make only three fire attribute bullets with his stigma the monster's speed was exceptionally fast for a spirit type monster to kill It hajin would need to get closer he asked Soho to distract it while he got near Soho agreed and Unleashed his

sword Saint power which seemed stronger than before suho was fascinated by hajin who never seemed surprised by any secret weapon suho remarked that sometimes he felt like hajin knew everything about this world hajin was taken aback but said nothing he knew everything because the person who created this world is him the author because of that many problems Have occurred this world that he wrote as a novel is currently right in front of eyes when he said those Worlds at that moment he realized that he has become a character that he never written before Soho ran

towards the butterfly and hajin took aim and shot a bullet it hit the butterfly but it didn't die hajin couldn't believe it survived and prepared for a second shot suddenly someone launched a powerful attack causing the butterfly to fall it was the Captain of the chameleon troop the butterfly was falling to the ground when Soo gave it a final strike they finally defeated the the sapling and Soho lost Consciousness the captain approached the butterfly sapling and collected its dust hajin came up from behind and demanded that she hand it over she didn't know exactly what

function the dust had but she probably came for it because loot from Spirits could sell for a high price to fight the spirits that would appear In the future Kim suo needed the butterfly sappling dust she looked around and was impressed to see everyone unconscious except hjin even though the butterfly was dead and the sapling effect had lessened hajin was still standing as a mere Cadet he was using the blocking defense function of ether but was having trouble breathing he tried to wear his mask but the captain attacked him preventing him from doing so she

opened a portal and revealed Herself hajin recognized her as leang she was confused until she remembered it was a fake identity she used When approaching Kim hajin she asked what he thought about her being there he answered that she must be a supervisor she asked if he knew she was Xiao Pang from the start when he tried answered she threatened to kill him if he lied horrified hajin quickly responded when he had stolen her watch he said has sharp eyes Jane's Talent couldn't be Seen through just sharp eyes however hajin was able to see through

Jane's talent and cognition impeding devices she theorized that he must have anti-magic Mana a special circumstance where all the Mana within him was anti-magic this made sense as to how he could see through Jane's Talent if her theory was correct hajin was a precious resource she couldn't afford to lose she calmed down and gave him the sapling dust in return she wanted something but Jane stopped her from making any strange requests she told her not to rush and to take it slow instead she just asked for his contact number after she left hajin finally felt

relieved he thought he was going to die but he managed to achieve an important goal then he remembered Rachel and the seed the seed was glowing and the Evangel seed was hatching releasing a bright light Rachel was feeling sleepy she wanted to defeat the spirit become number one and make the Imperial family proud she opened her eyes a little and saw a bright light and a small child the child quickly hugged her Rachel wondered who she was noting that all her wounds were healing the child felt familiar almost like her younger self she was trying

to say something but Rachel couldn't hear her her vision blurred and she fell asleep quickly came running evangel's child called him dad and asked why mom was sleeping again
