1 Chapter 1

-Arf! Arf! Arf! Arf! – Tired, Hye, who had just done some physical exercises, got up from the floor, where he was. And sighed.

Then, when he turned and looked at the mirror, which was behind him. Hye grabbed the collar of his white T-shirt and wiped the sweat, which was almost dripping off his face, as he said –...As I had thought, in addition to earning the points, my body is also changing. But how far does this change go?

He looked down at his shirt, which was completely soaked with his sweat, and then pulled it off, tossing it on the floor. And as he took a step forward, he put his hand on the mirror, and focusing on those black eyes of his, which had a look that seemed to show his anger at something, or someone, he said - It's been 9 long, wintery years, that I kept as far away as possible... But, now I think it's finally time to start, to go to them.

Hye sighed, and as he ran his hand through his black hair, which was wet with sweat, he muttered.

He grabbed his shirt from the floor beside him and walked through the door, which was to the left of the mirror. Then, as he walked through the door, Hye tossed the T-shirt into the clothes hamper, which was to the right of the door. He went to the sink, which was a little in front of the basket, and after washing his face, he went to take a shower.

Some minutes later.

Hye went through the bathroom door, while drying his hair with a gray towel, walked to the single bed, which was a little further from the door, and grabbed the dark pants, which were upstairs. After pulling on his pants, with the towel on his shoulder, Hye grabbed his white shirt, and threw the towel on the bed.

So afterward he sat up in bed, and the next moment, he bent down a little, and picked up the white sneakers, which were under his bed.

Minutes later.

As he straightened the white sweatshirt he had just put on, Hye reached for the doorknob and pulled. So, after locking the door, he put his apartment key in his pants pocket and went down the stairs, which were right next door.

Some hours later.

-To get here, it took longer than I thought ... - Hye muttered, while looking at a large building, where at his door, people came and went all the time.

Upon entering the building, he immediately received from the receptionist, who was at a huge counter, to the left of the door, a small note, with the number 47. So, Hye went deeper into the building, where there were several people, who were probably there, representing small guilds.

But not caring about those people, Hye just moved on, and sat down, in one of the chairs that were, there in front, on the wall. Right beside a brown door.

He really didn't expect this. But for some reason, that wait seemed to take forever. Hye looked at his note again, and saw that in reality, the number written there was 74 -What the...-

-Number 74, Jeong Hye, please come in.- he spoke to a woman, who wore a black suit, and held a leaf in her hands. She opened the door as she said that, and then held out her hand, to show the way.

After being called, Hye immediately entered the room. A place where he had only the entrance and exit doors, a glass window, which in this case would be the entire wall to the right of the door. A small table, with a swivel chair, and a regular chair in front.

Hye sat in the chair, while the woman sat in the chair at the table, and adjusted her glasses.

-I'll ask you some questions, so please answer them honestly. Because your answers, will appear, in your future record. - He spoke to the woman, as he took the pen that was on the table.

-OK.-

-So, first. What is your age?-

-22 years.-

-Height?-

-1.76 meters... if I'm not mistaken.-

"Level?" She looked at Hye, and realized he was a little hesitant to answer. But thinking it was because she was ashamed, smiling gently she said -I'm sorry for that question. But we really have to do it. Even if a beginner's level, in the end, it's always 0. I think it's just something, like a formality. So don't care so much about her.

-Now, continuing. Do you by any chance have any abilities?

-Not.-

-And what is the goal, which you want to achieve, by becoming a hunter?-

-Goal?... - Hye thought a little before answering. Would your goal be, revenge? But this is impossible. Even because the dungeon, where his parents died, closed soon after they left. Then, having nothing to say, he looked at the woman, and said, “My objective must be the same as everyone's, or at least the majority's. Make myself known, and earn a lot of money doing it.–

-I see... And do you have any relatives, who are a hunter?-

-...Not. –

-Country?-

-...They're dead...-

-I see... Sorry for that question, too.- The woman put the pen on the table, and got up. Then, standing in front of the door, she said, "Now we'll have to take the physical test, so please follow me."

-Wait! But what about the file? – asked Hye, confused, for not having seen her writing anything he said, at any time.

-You do not need to worry about it. Now, could you follow me?

Hye was confused. But what he didn't know was that in that paper, which was on the table, he had much more information about him than he was asked by that woman.
