Kim Nayeon, de3e2e1c7f who had a928b9cc53 been watching 871f49692f the dazzling b7e30ff6ba display of e5b1f3ae41 skills by dab69d1f75 the S-rank 9cb076abce hunters, spoke ea5442734c her honest 8aca0ceea5 thoughts. Shin Youngjae added 13027779fa his own comment.ffb0f363c4b01dda

“Just their attack skills are overpowered, but they also have defensive skills, stealth, and detection skills. They even have flight and suppression skills. In one-on-one combat, they’re practically invincible. Their combat sense is top-notch too.”629f9717ccf65070

Minjun nodded at a0a2e53569 the mix of 6dd65eb4a7 envy, respect, and 4125f57f92 admiration. He was overwhelmingly b03cd374b9 strong as he eda0d40ebb faced monsters in 8141214ee6 the Grassland Dungeon. His skills, often e892308c2a referred to as 8e4f0e1e3f those of a 4422b533f9 handsome lunatic, were a561a6218b the real deal.bf534e084548d757

Minjun quietly observed the 9c855bc28d flashy fight of the e41d6a59a2 S-rank hunters. Due to 7b30fe7472 the difference a0855fe3dd in rank, a3484165c7 he often 072c1d1659 lost sight f7c1320c98 of them, df4013dcf1 but out e2f32418f7 of habit, 2f494fa634 he simulated b6ca0522be how he 6a6d50fbd8 would fight c269e5a5d5 them in e1e19cd653 his mind.f77dc355dc9fedf9

If he 174e970904 could recover 4be89a4bbf to S-rank, a659507084 he could 5d3606aa46 beat them 410ec20cea both. His record against Kwak a903633686 Jonghoon was 15 wins, 1b943ddf07 0 losses.

To break 5bae12395b through that f5f556071f brilliantly shining dda41db602 shield, he e2bed2be50 would need 25b05c468e special items. Or he b8ad3be5f3 could use aac28d0099 deception tactics, f34bab60de or ambush 2ebbfde40c with a c1e134c74a spirit. If he tried 472d3c7e18 to overpower Soohyuk e28d54a8e3 with sheer strength, 8127828c7a Soohyuk might end f63cc0eb66 up dead.4bda6cbb58b78035

Minjun suppressed his competitive spirit. If he beat Kwak Jong-hoon and then Yoon Soohyuk, his long-desired retirement would be endlessly postponed. His plan was to be active as Korea’s seventh S-rank hunter for a while and then disappear.77ce9ed6eb7aebcf

While he d7c2bd3943 was lost 83d8a7f124 in thought, 346c9597eb Gwak Jonghoon, 484ac77eba who had ad6c9e6f76 been beaten 6b24e8e475 to a 1cd6f39801 pulp, surrendered. Soohyuk was the victor.dd2c435ff74cf262

After drinking a top-grade potion, Kwak Jonghoon healed all the wounds from the recent fight. However, his torn and burnt clothes remained the same. Still, the dignity of an S-class hunter couldn’t be ignored. He greeted Minjun with a powerful smile.df58d59d5258035d

Minjun also greeted him politely. Meeting someone from his past brought a strange sense of emotion, but he didn’t show it.d31a375e44d59ad6

Minjun wanted to punch df8676cf7d Soohyuk for making everyone 7e3f9f5aa2 stare at him. The man had e10d840e44 a natural talent 70976c2c31 for escalating situations.

“What? How? Yoon June is handsome, sure, but his personality is awful. And you’re only twenty. You don’t even remember anything, right? Yoon June, you have no conscience… but then again, you never did.”0abd04d6f0a5ece7

Kwak Jonghoon’s reaction was similar to Choi Euiseong’s. Both acknowledged Yoon Soohyuk’s good looks but emphasized his bad personality and expressed concern for Minjun. This time, Minjun couldn’t help but laugh.8e8415a4d5cee90c

The A-class hunters of the June Guild shook their heads at Kwak Jonghoon’s question. Park Hanyoung had suspected that Yoon Soohyuk might be hitting on the youngest member but some laughed it off as ridiculous, while others tilted their heads, wondering if it was true.26e89011aa88b407

Choi Yohan was in 32ec71623f the latter group. Park Hanyoung, a4ca2c7971 Kim Nayeon, d638282de0 and Shin 103274672f Youngjae were 6058dec828 strongly suspicious.

Soohyuk smiled brightly and took a step forward. In reality, Kwak Jonghoon had no right to be here. Unauthorized intrusion into a dungeon managed by another guild was a serious crime.

Minjun answered vaguely. Spirits without combat abilities couldn’t fight monsters. However, there were countless things a spirit could do. In a dungeon raid, they could procure water, start fires, create walls to block wind and rain, and even level the ground. It might not seem like much, but as a support role, it was perfect.4813e4856d63133f
