    Joo-ah put down her glass and glared at the screen in front of her.

     

    The footage displayed scenes of herself battling virtual monsters at the training center and taking down monsters that had emerged outside the tower.

    She couldn’t understand when or why they started showing these kinds of videos to Hunters.

    At that moment, Yeon-joo, sitting beside her, stifled a laugh and whispered to Joo-ah.

    “Look at Yoo Chan-hee and Shin Jae-rim’s faces.”

    Joo-ah turned to look at them with a puzzled expression. Their gazes were fixed intently on the screen.

    “They look like they’re about to get sucked in, don’t they?”

    Yeon-joo chuckled as if she found it amusing. Sure enough, Chan-hee and Jae-rim stared at the screen, looking a little dazed, almost as if they had lost focus on everything else.

    Joo-ah, clearly uncomfortable with their reactions, glanced at them and then asked Yeon-joo.

    “Why are they staring at it like that?”

    “Do you know who the person in the video is?”

    “…No?”

    Yeon-joo smiled knowingly and spoke.

    “That’s the strongest Hunter in South Korea.”

    Joo-ah didn’t know how to respond and remained silent. Yeon-joo mistook her silence for shock and continued.

    “The Special Awakener Association gathers the top-ranked Hunters to form an elite unit. South Korea has only two of these elite teams.”

    Feigning curiosity, Joo-ah opened her mouth to ask.

    “So, that person in the video is one of them?”

    “That’s right. That’s Hunter Kwon Eun-young, the number-one-ranked Hunter.”

    Please visit lilyonthevalley.com to support the translator

     

    The elite unit was notoriously secretive about their identities, so not many people outside knew their faces in detail.

    The general public could only recognize them by the basic information that leaked through the media, like their names, ages, or rankings.

    The Chairman had left the banquet hall after a brief greeting.

    “The Chairman says it’s for educational purposes. But honestly, I think it’s just to show off. One time, they even made us watch Kwon Eun-young’s videos all day long.”

    “And those two? They’re as much fans of Kwon Eun-young as the Chairman is.”

    Her face twisted into an even grimmer expression, as though she had heard something she never wanted to. She shot a resentful look at Yeon-joo.

    “Yoo Chan-hee, I get. But Jae-rim? That’s unexpected. It’s kind of funny when you think about it, right?”

    “…W-why do they like her?”

    Yeon-joo shrugged casually.

    “Jae-rim once had his life saved by Kwon Eun-young in the tower. After that, he started to admire her. And since he’s using someone as amazing as the number-one-ranked Hunter as his role model, his rank rose quickly too.”

    Joo-ah turned her gaze to Jae-rim. He was still staring at Eun-young on the screen, his eyes shining in a way she’d never seen before. His usually detached gaze now brimmed with something new.

    As she kept staring at Jae-rim, her gaze naturally shifted to Chan-hee. He, too, was watching the screen as if entranced.

    Honestly, she found it harder to believe about Chan-hee. Considering his flirtatious nature, the idea of him deeply respecting or being a fan of someone seemed odd.

    “Not many Hunters in the training center have met the elite unit, so it’s not that strange.”

    The elite unit’s training facilities and dorms were far from where regular Hunters stayed.

    The government had designated them as high-value assets, protecting them with top-level security. Losing a member of the elite unit was equivalent to losing one of the country’s most powerful weapons.

    Treating people as weapons was a problem in itself, though.

    “Then why does Yoo Chan-hee admire Kwon Eun-young if he’s never met her?”

    “There’s always been a lot of buzz about the number-one-ranked Hunter. Most Hunters hope they never have to face an SSS-grade monster in the tower. Even the highest-ranked Hunters might not survive against one.”

    When the screen finally moved on to another Hunter, Jae-rim quickly looked away, indifferent again, while Chan-hee visibly sulked. Noticing Joo-ah staring, he glared back at her.
