Hunter Academy’s Greatest War God

Chapter 367 Shin

Ha-yoon never once doubted her potential since she awakened her memories of the sleeping witch, Morgan.

Many things were different from before, but many things were similar.

This was a world that dealt with blessings in the name of ‘characteristics’, and those who dealt with the power of mana were tied up in the name of ‘Hunters’.

Shin Ha-yoon knew the knowledge accumulated over a long period of time and learned the common sense of this world.

If you think life is a game, this is a very unfair game. From the beginning, Shin Ha-yoon had the ‘sense’ for the mana she had to make through the Shin-O family’s ‘talent’ and the vast witch’s ‘knowledge’ training.

Thanks to that, Shin Ha-yoon’s growth rate was unmatched. Since it was a case that deviated from common sense, it built up strength beyond common sense.

‘I thought there was no one in this world who could be a threat to me.’

The blood of the Shin-O family, whose mother and father were both 7th-class hunters, seemed to smile not only at himself. Shin Yoo-seong, who met Kwon Wang and exploded his potential, became infinitely stronger.

There was no hunter who was stronger than Shin Yoo-seong even during his 3rd year, and there were almost none throughout his active duty.

‘You and I are the only ones at that age who have that level of skill.’

However, Shin Yoo-seong was not Shin Ha-yoon’s person. It was an obvious enemy that interfered with the goal. Moreover, what Shin Ha-yoon wanted was a world dominated by himself looking down at the distant scenery from a high place, not a companion.

‘You’re too strong to be cute. It only hinders me from achieving my dream.’

Witches knew how to crush humans. He was aware of the inner weakness imprinted on his brother.

‘I will go through the trials that have been given to me as if nothing happened. I will use that ordeal as an opportunity to become stronger…’

This is war. There was no need to rush to the solid walls. Shin Yoo-seong, seen by Shin Ha-yoon, was as strong as steel, but his colleagues were not. All of them gathered with Shin Yoo-seong at the center, but the ‘students with excellent talent’ were just that much of an impression.

Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa)

the pink smoke coalesced on the palm of Shin Hayoon and turned into finely crafted glass;

aka Glass Heart.

It looked like an ordinary perfume bottle made of heart-shaped glass, but it was an artifact used to seal the essence of mana and seal monsters in the form of spirits or ghosts.

Through the knowledge of a witch who was knowledgeable in black magic, Shin Ha-yoon changed that nature into dragon’s unique mana.

‘It will never work on an adult dragon, but…’

Young dragons who were mere Hetzling were very vulnerable to this technique.

“Little Master! Here’s a stone that’s perfect for turning into a mana stone!”

“Kyahang-! full of stones! Velvet is rich! It’s a chicken party today!”

Shin Ha-yoon smiled at the noisy Velvet, and then touched the glass heart.

‘At this level, it’s between 70% and 80%. No, it can contain more than that.’

To dragons, mana is power and life. A normal life would be impossible if a large amount of such life energy was taken away. Maybe even your life is in danger in the near future.

Shin Ha-yoon confirmed the order given to Lee Hyuk for any possibility.

[Shin Ha-yoon: What’s your answer?]

[Lee Hyuk: I’ve arrived in Okinawa. We’re going to meet soon.]

[Shin Ha-yoon: Finish within 10 minutes.]

Lee Hyuk was also one of the cards Shin Ha-yoon prepared. There was a way to pressure Shin Yoo-seong while obtaining a dragon heart, both in Gaon and in Japan.

“Little master, shouldn’t we go back soon?”

“eye patch! Let’s find 10 more!”

Shin Ha-yoon smiled at the noisy Velvet and Orca.

‘Yooseong-ah. Either way, don’t resent me too much. I… gave it enough chances.’

This is the witch’s way.

Shin Ha-yoon did not cover any cruel means. In the process, even if it meant sacrificing someone innocent, there was no sense of guilt.

The panoramic view of the Churaumi Aquarium was amazing, as if the sea was embodied through the huge glass wall.

‘Wow, can I see the entire aquarium like this?’

However, Sumire overlooked the stamina of her younger siblings. Suito talked about the ecology of marine life all day long, Sugoro often disappeared even if he looked away for a moment, and Suguha would ask to take pictures of each place he went.

It is very difficult for even a hunter to take care of his three younger siblings.

[I’ll go with my mom and dad~]

[I’m resting, unnie!]

[Smiley~]

Sumire was only able to get away from her younger siblings when her parents arrived late.

“As expected, everyone is full of energy.”

Sumire refreshes herself with a drink at the cafe next to the aquarium. Finally, I wanted to spend some time alone and replenish my energy, but someone sat in front of Sumire.

Chin-

The man sitting in front of him was wearing Gaon’s school uniform, which was unbelievable. Moreover, the badge on the name tag is the student council badge.

“…to?”

Embarrassed Sumire looked up, and Lee Hyuk looked around to see if anyone was stealing the story, and answered in a cold voice.

“Don’t hanajima, Sumire. Let’s talk for a minute.”

Lee Hyuk was the person Sumire met when Laplace possessed him. Sumire only knew that Lee Hyuk was Gaon’s vice president.

“Ah yes!”

It’s been a long time since I came to Japan, but why did I return it by the weekend to find myself? Sumire couldn’t predict Lee Hyuk’s actions. Looking at Sumire, Lee Hyuk held out a square chip and said briefly.

“Get out of Shin Yoo-seong’s party and come in under Ha-yoon. Then you will enjoy privileges in the student council until you graduate.”

“What!”

When Sumire, who rarely gets angry, stood up in a fit of anger, Lee Hyuk replied in a calm voice.

“It’s a good offer, so don’t be so angry. Your background investigation has already been completed. Even now, in the past, you only entered according to your grades, and you lived a normal life without any specific goals, right?”

Lee Hyuk recited his thoughts on the Sumire he created based on his research. Some of the stories were so raw that they felt like criticism.

“Wasn’t your desire to become a Hunter just a means to revitalize your family? No, maybe it was pushed by the parents. Hunter life is quite money.”

Lee Hyuk handed Sumire a square chip with his index and middle fingers inserted. It was a chip that charged cash in the form of points when recognized in a pocket. Items used only for transactions by high-ranking officials whose public confidence has been recognized by banks or associations, which are not permitted to anyone.

“5 billion in advance. This is part of the money Shin Ha-yoon saved to prepare for Dragon Heart. If you agree to our terms, we will give you another 5 billion as the balance.”

Lee Hyuk suggested a total of 10 billion.

This was a lot of money that was hard to see even in a large guild scout. Has there ever been an offer of such a large amount to a single student throughout the Hunter world?

“If you became a hunter hoping for money, it’s a huge amount that you can decide to retire. Think soberly. Opportunities don’t come often in life.”

Sumire, weighed down by the sudden offer, looked at Lee Hyuk in silence. I just stared at it for a while with an expression that I couldn’t read.

‘I’ll agree. Is it natural?’

While Lee Hyuk predicted an answer to some extent, Sumire opened her mouth in a sad voice.

“Is this… his way of treating Yoosung?”

Sumire was the only colleague who visited the Shin-Oh family with Shin Yoo-seong. Thanks to that, he knew better than anyone about Shin Yoo-seong’s past and sorrow, and his relationship with Shin Ha-yoon.

“what?”

Sumire couldn’t understand.

Even if it was only in the past, Shin Yoo-sung and Shin Ha-yoon were family. But to pay a lot of money and try to take away a colleague in order to achieve what you want?

“This is… strange. They say that family should be someone you can trust more than anyone else.”

Lee Hyuk looked at Sumire.

Maybe it’s because he got along with Shin Ha-yoon too much? To Lee Hyuk, even though Sumire’s words were extremely normal, he felt that they were nothing but the whining of a child.

“Don’t expect common sense. The world we live in is different.”

Lee Hyuk did not try to understand Shin Ha-yoon from the public’s point of view. At first, I thought it was crazy, but the reason why I admired Shin Ha-yoon and followed him was because I felt an overwhelming difference that I could never catch up with in my life.

“Ordinary criminals will never understand.”

Shin Ha-yoon, seen by Lee Hyuk, was mad with a fanatical goal. He was swinging his mad grip here and there to fulfill his twisted aspirations.

No matter what you hold or feel, the end will be futile. He hates to admit it, but Lee Hyuk was longing for Shin Ha-yoon’s attention.

Competent handling of parts is also good, so I hoped Shin Ha-yoon would acknowledge the fact that he was always by his side on the road he was walking on. In a way, the same goes for being crazy.

“But… the strongest is a path that cannot be walked without going crazy.”

However, Sumire shook her head again at Lee Hyuk’s rationalization. Sumire knew a person who always walked the straight path, but was always moving forward.

I thought Shin Yuseong was more qualified to be the strongest than anyone else.

“That is an excuse. It’s because it’s easier to go down the road by sacrificing others than by working together.”

Even if Shin Ha-yoon laughed at him now, he firmly believed without the slightest doubt that it was Shin Yoo-seong that reached the end.

“Is that your answer?”

Lee Hyuk immediately got up from his seat and retrieved the chip with a blunt face. After meeting many people, Lee Hyuk’s eyes naturally grew.

The Sumire Lee Hyuk saw was the type of person whose choice would never change, no matter how much he tried to convince her. However, do you know the weight of what it means to reject Shin Ha-yoon’s offer?

“good. Pretend there was no offer. But… you will regret this moment.”

After walking out of the cafe, Lee Hyuk looked at the sky. The sky was so clear that it only looked gloomy today.

[Lee Hyuk: Sumire Hanajima declined the offer.]

Like a harbinger of a huge typhoon.
