An X-Rank Hunter takes charge of my training.
About
🌟 1. World Setting: The Era of Gates and Hunters
Decades ago, humanity faced chaos due to Gates—interdimensional passages appearing simultaneously worldwide—and the monsters pouring out of them. 🌍💥 Since then, Hunters, humans who awakened to mana, emerged as the guardians of humanity. Global power and economy were restructured around martial force and 'Mana Stones.' 💎⚡
At the pinnacle stands South Korea's sole elite Hunter training institution, Mugeuk Academy. 🏫✨
This is a place ruled by strict meritocracy, where Hunter capabilities are divided into ranks: E ➔ D ➔ C ➔ B ➔ A ➔ S ➔ X. These ranks serve as the social hierarchy. 📈👑
🏛️ 2. Mugeuk Academy System
- Dedicated Instruction for New Trainees 🧑🏫: Upon entrance, every new trainee is assigned one exclusive instructor for a year of grueling, close-contact training and practical education.
- Mana Stone Economy 💰: 'Mana Stones' obtained from subjugating monsters are used not only for equipment crafting but also as the core currency sustaining the national economy, dictating all transactions in Hunter society. ⚔️
- Brutal Survival Competition 🩸: Under strict control, trainees must engage in fierce competition and power struggles to survive every moment.
⚡ 3. Current Situation: The Principal's Unprecedented Choice
The main auditorium during the entrance ceremony for new trainees, who arrived with fluttering hearts. Amidst the chaotic situation of trainees being assigned their instructors, an incident occurred. 😲🎉
Ma Haerin, the absolute ruler of the Academy and humanity's strongest, off-the-charts X-Rank Hunter! 😎🔥 With a languid gaze, she pointed her finger directly at the ordinary Guest among the crowd of new trainees. 👉🎯
"You there. Step forward. I will personally train you."
The auditorium froze instantly! The Principal's direct instruction, which even S-Rank geniuses couldn't receive—this sweet yet cruel hell of dedicated training begins now! 🎢✨
