3 Rounds by Myself

15 – It’s time for me to rule!

Worried, I jumped up. A bleak energy invaded the hospital room.

Nervous, I’m quietly staring at the door.

“Excuse me.”

As expected, it was the voice of a stranger.

“Who are you?”

“I am a homicide detective in Gangdong-gu.”

“Oh, come in.”

I let out a sigh of relief.

***

“If I were like a detective, you wouldn’t believe it. The fact that an ordinary young man like me took down three bloody people like that.”

“Ummm… ….”

Cheol-wu rested his chin on his chin and made a thoughtful expression.

“I never thought what those sajupa guys said was true…. There is no way that the victim, Lee Si-woon, would lie….”

“If I were a detective, I wouldn’t have believed you.”

“Hmm… …. Heavenly luck followed you.”

“You can see that. This time, I felt that human beings are really amazing. When a great crisis came, he showed superhuman strength.”

Siwoon took it easy.

I wouldn’t believe it even if I knocked them down with my own eyes and shoulders.

“Um… ….”

Cheol-wu drooled.

I don’t quite understand it from his own point of view,

He didn’t ask anymore because the victim had no reason to lie.

“Looks like you’ve asked everything you need to ask.”

Cheol-wu stood up from his seat and said.

“Don’t worry about your safety. Those three guys are going to end up in jail.”

“Isn’t it?”

Cheol-wu nodded his head heavily and continued his words.

“…… Besides, don’t worry about the sajupa. We’re going to have some of our officers stationed in front of this hospital. In addition, the Sajupa is almost in a state of collapse now. You will be out of your mind to escape.”

“Oh, is that so?”

“We, the police, will do our best to arrest all the sajupa bastards this time.”

Detective Park Cheol-woo’s eyes contained sincerity.

***

After the detective left.

He took out his smart phone.

‘Maybe you can find it if you search the Internet.’

Let’s search for Park Cheol-woo in the portal site search box.

[Detective Park Cheol-woo single-handedly pursues and subdues reckless drivers to the end. Received commendation for brave policeman]

[Park Cheol-woo, a true police officer at Gangdong Police Station. Rejecting all bribes of district office officials and conducting investigations on bribery charges]

[Park Cheol-woo, a detective with the only conviction. Public officials involved in corruption rooted out]

It was full of articles about him.

‘I can trust you with this matter.’

***

Four weeks later.

After being safely discharged,

Siwoon is in the room.

It was after hearing the happy news that detective Park Chul-woo had arrested all the gangsters and gangsters.

‘Now that all worries are over, let’s start studying.’

The room was filled with the rhythmic sound of turning the pages.

The book he is looking into.

-Hunter Studies History.

‘This is the true definition of a hunter.’

Hunter.

What is Hunter? It refers to a person who hunts monsters between the present world and the other world.

Hunter’s income structure was as follows.

Obtain items requested by corporate sponsors in the real world through monster corpses in the other world,

You can make money by giving it to a sponsor and receiving the corresponding pay, or by delivering various treasures, rare items, and collectibles that cannot be obtained in the real world by being active in the other world.

That also varies greatly depending on the hunter’s rank.

The world of hunters was no different from a thoroughly hierarchical society.

And if Hunter dies, why does the state provide death insurance money?

The presidents of several countries in the present world and the kings in the other world signed a contract to interact and help each other.

In the other world,

Let hunters be given the qualification to transport items excavated from monsters or various treasures obtained by searching in the other world to the real world.

With that condition, the hunters in the real world,

The condition is that you help the other world by carrying out quests, wars between monsters rampant in the other world, and wars between countries in the other world.

Then why? Why does the world of the other world not use the hunters of its own world and receive this kind of help from the hunters of the present world?

The answer is this.

People in the present world have different auras from those in the other world.

Thus, humans in the present world can move to the other world and use their special abilities with that energy.

That ability is the ‘level up system’.

What is the level up system?

Like a game system in reality, it refers to the hunter’s only ability to level up, grant skills, acquire, and become stronger.

However,

Unfortunately, humans in the other world did not have the energy to use these system abilities.

So people from the other world can’t become hunters.

In summary,

This level up system is a blessing given only to hunters in the real world.

Siwoon, who was studying while flipping through the bookshelves, stopped his eyes on a certain page.

.

Splash! Slam!

……… Took!

I came across the vast history of the other world and closed the bookshelf.

‘…… What a fantasy world. I want to go to the other world quickly.’

***

A few months later.

The office of the president of KS Corporation, which has a capitalist mindset that even hires chimpanzees if it makes money.

Chairman Cheon Sang-jin is quietly staring at Park with his molars twitching.

“……….”

Director Park couldn’t say anything and felt the stinging gaze with his whole body.

“Hey, Managing Director Park.”

“…… Yes. President.”

“Are you aware of the biggest challenge facing our company right now?”

“…… I know.”

“Haven’t you been able to find a hunter to take on the job you know?”

“……….”

“Do you want to lose your job and starve your children?”

“Oh, no. President!”

Sangjin’s eyes twitched as he bit his chin, and life flowed out.

Park couldn’t do it this time either.

“…… Hunters who are A rank or higher in other companies are taken first. So… “

“Shut up!!”

I heard voices hitting my ears.

Boom! Sangjin hit the table with his fist and jumped up.

Surprised, Managing Director Park shrugged his shoulders and closed his mouth.

“Who asks because they don’t know that? Don’t you know that bringing in hunters these days is what you have to focus on the most, Mr. Park?”

“…… That is.”

“This is a fierce rice bowl fight anyway. We should have at least recruited the hunters from a company bigger than us by stabbing them with more money and subscribing to us.”

“Sorry.”

“For some reason I keep doing things I am sorry for.”

“……….”

“Whoa… ….”

Sangjin straightens his shirt and sits down again.

And he quietly gazes at Park’s face.

“You know today is the 3rd day of the Hunter exam, right?”

“Yes, yes! …… I know, Chairman.”

“Go there and dig up the jewel.”

“Yes? You mean to excavate the jewels?”

“Find a friend with outstanding qualities! Sitting in the seat of a manager, you don’t even know how to talk like that.”

“…… Come on, Chairman.”

Director Park wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief and continued his words.

“Even if we find one decent friend, it will take too long to make a hunter to get the supplies we need.”

Park was right.

Hunters are all from F rank.

Even if you pass the 3rd Hunter Exam and pass the 4th interview, the Hunter will start at the F level.

However,

Currently, all the various items needed by the KS company were rare items that hunters with at least A rank could bring.

How long does it take from F-rank Hunter to A-rank hunter?

Even though it should be different for each person.

No matter how fast it is, it’s just a few years.

There were also numerous hunters who could not reach the A rank even after ten or twenty years.

Cheon Sang-jin looked at Park with a pitiful look and shook his head.

“That means we’re going to raise Hunter once.”

“Are you saying you want to spawn an F-rank Hunter?”

At Park’s words, Sangjin nodded her head.

“… I’m sorry, but that seems a bit reckless. Are you saying you want to spawn F-class kids knowing when they will grow up?”

“I’m trying to find a person like Park Tae-seok.”

“There won’t be a friend like Park Tae-seok in this hunter test, no, how do you find such a genius who is unique in Korea… “

Park Tae-seok.

He is already the most famous hunter in Korea.

The anecdote that he went from F-class to A-class hunter in 6 months is so famous that everyone in the country knows it.

Sangjin narrowly opened his eyes and looked into the sky.

“No, it might come out this time.”

“What do you mean…… “

When Park was speechless, the secretary next to him also looked at Cheon Sang-jin with a suspicious look.

“You know the fortuneteller called Cheonsindoryeong, right?”

“A heavenly god?”

“He is the strongest fortune teller in Korea. That fortune teller is the one who predicted everything from the IMF to the 9/11 terror and the Iraq War.”

“Oh, is that so?”

“I went to see that fortune teller, and he said this straight to my face. Something special is coming out this year. Don’t miss it.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“What do you mean? Doesn’t that mean that an innovative Hunter will come out this year?”

Managing Director Park was dazed for a while, then shook his head.

“…… Once I heard what you were saying. Then I’ll go to the exam hall, President.”

“If you are entrusted with an important position, such as managing director, without being able to handle your work all the time, feel some sense of responsibility. Sure to find If you mess up again…… “

Sangjin scratched his neck with his hand.

Director Park, who saw that gesture, was surprised and raised his tone in reply.

“Oh, I see! President.”

“Let’s go out.”

Director Park bowed respectfully to Sangjin and closed the door as he exited the president’s office.

And Director Park grumbled as he glared at the door of the president’s office.

“Chairman Chun…… As you get older, your judgment seems to have deteriorated. To believe only the words of that one shaman and come find the Hunter.”

***

A space as large as a stadium in a Korean soccer field.

This space is in full swing right now.

Because it is the test site of the long-awaited final gateway.

‘If you pass this barrier, you can head to the final interview!’

Everyone had that mindset.

“No. 127! Grab some porridge and fight against number 243.”

“Okay! Instructor.”

“Hey, hey! No. 143. What should I do with my shinai like that! Are you really a qualified student who came to take the exam?”

“Ah, with the tension! I will do it right.”

Everyone was desperate.

Preliminary hunters held bamboo swords and desperately showed themselves in front of the instructors, and in the opposite space, prospective hunters were seen pulling arrows and shooting arrows at the target.

Hunter 3rd test.

It is a test to check whether the physical strength and aptitude of the hunters who passed the 1st and 2nd written exams, which are said to be more difficult than strabismus, are met.

In addition, in this third round, a basic DNA ability test is conducted through the ‘other world scanner’.

What is basic DNA stat?

It means that basic muscle strength, motor nerves, and various senses that humans are inherently born with are distributed as ability values.

Then why is this test being done?

Once,

The abilities of people in the present world who pass the Hunter exam and go to the other world are all initialized to the basic DNA-based abilities.

For example, what if an elite martial artist who has been exercising for 10 years becomes a hunter and moves to the other world?

Before exercising, it means that it is initialized and returned to the original basic body condition.

On the other hand, even if you are an ordinary person who has not exercised at all, if you have high innate motor nerves and sensory abilities, you can start with a condition that is superior to other hunters even if you are at the same ‘1’ level in the other world.

So,

The Hunter Association conducted a DNA test to determine these qualities.

***

A black Benz comes to a stop as if sliding.

Then the passenger door opened and a man got out.

He was Managing Director Park.

“It’s the first time in my life that I come to the Hunter Test Center again.”

He raised his head and looked into the air.

-Xxxx Episode 3 Hunter test site.

Seeing the large banner hanging, Director Park looked around him.

The faces of the hunters struggling with the will to pass came into my eyes one by one.

“Whew. Because of the old man Cheon Sang-jin, I walked in vain today. All of them are only new chicks.”

“Managing Director Park. Director Hunter is over there. Say hello.”

The driver in charge next to me said.

“Ah, the chairman is here. OK, you are in the car.”

“Okay.”

Managing Director Park tidied up his clothes, reflected through the window of his Mercedes-Benz.

Because I have to face Hunter.

He trudged across the proving grounds and stopped in one place.

A long table was arranged there, and I could see men reviewing various documents spread out on the table.

After that, I saw a man sitting and drinking coffee calmly, surrounded by men in suits.

‘There he is.’

The person who caught his eye was the chairman of the Hunter Association.

***

“Chairman. Could I see the profiles of the prospective hunters this time?”

At the words of the managing director, the chairman was taken aback.

Originally, all the information of all prospective students who passed the second round is written in the profile of the prospective hunter.

Academic background, body size, hometown, presence of various diseases, and even the occupations of their families…

It is not fair as the chairman of the board to disclose such a profile to a group.

Seeing the bewildered chairman, Managing Director Park smiled inwardly, raising the corner of his mouth.

‘I can’t say no. How many times have I taken you to the salon?’

In this era, companies cannot survive without hunters.

So,

Conglomerates give various types of s*x entertainment and bribes to the chairman who has the power to control the hunters.

The attitude of asking them to take good care of themselves.

The chairman accepts all of it, but doesn’t shut his mouth.

What if it was completely closed?

This is because the fact will be exposed to the media and he will have to step down from his position as chairman.

“Kuhmm….”

The chairman looked at his surroundings and secretly gestured to his subordinates.

Then the subordinate handed over thick documents to Park.

“Aigoo~ Thank you. Just curious.”

Flutter.

Director Park looked over the documents several times and then asked the chairman.

“Are there any prospective students worth keeping an eye on?”

“I have a young friend who passed both the 1st and 2nd exams with perfect marks.”

“Yes? With a perfect score?!”

Park’s eyes became rabbit eyes.

Director Park, impatient with his curiosity, hurriedly asked.

“Who is that? I, where are you at the exam center?”

The chairman pointed at someone with his index finger.

Director Park followed the direction of the director’s index finger and fixed his gaze on a man.

The man had fair skin and a fine face.

He was also a very young-looking man.

Retracting the hand the chairman pointed out, he said.

“Exam No. 1438. My friend is Siwoon Lee.”
