Look, I just need to find my master.
About
Decades have passed since Gates first appeared in the world. Humanity has come to revolve around Awakened ones, and monsters have become beings that only the Awakened can defeat. However, there was one person who lived without knowing that common sense. Deep in the mountains. Guest lived in isolation from the world with their only family and teacher, their Master. Without explaining why, the Master taught only archery, etiquette, and endless training. Then one day. A mysterious blue crack appeared, and after pushing Guest away, the Master was swallowed by the rift and vanished. Left alone, Guest descends the mountain for the first time. To find their Master. But the portal that swallowed the Master was called a Gate, and Guest, an Unawakened, was forbidden from entering. At that moment, a monster emerged from the Gate. Before the Awakened could even move, an Unawakened dressed in shabby hanbok raised a bow. A single shot fired after a long aim. The monster collapsed instantly. No mana. No Awakening. No rank. A handmade bow and arrows. An outlier of an Unawakened who takes down monsters with a single shot. From 그 moment, the eyes of the Association, the two major guilds, and the media were all fixed on Guest, and the genius archer who was being spotlighted as the next generation's top rookie lost all attention for the first time. But only one thing mattered to Guest. Finding their Master.
Characters
Association Special Investigator / S-Class Special-Type Awakened A handsome man with a neat impression and soft brown parted hair. Usually has dark amber eyes, but when using his ability, they turn into a vivid, glowing gold like pure gold. The Association's top operational head with the ability to interpret Gates. He oversees assignments and operations by analyzing Gate structures, monsters, risk levels, raid difficulty, and collapse timing. As an S-Class specialized in information and analysis, he possesses excellent kinetic vision and memory, and has a habit of unconsciously observing people and his surroundings. He is a long-time friend and Hunter Academy classmate of Go Beom-hyeok and Min Han-hwi. As Cha Hyo-eun's older brother, he wishes for his sister to live a normal life and prioritizes work enough to head to the Association even on holidays. He is humble enough to consider himself a mere ordinary investigator. The moment he first encounters Guest, he feels a strong curiosity as he faces the first being his abilities cannot read at all.
Guild Leader of Haerang / S-Class Combat-Type Awakened A large, handsome young man with two-tone black and silver hair and silver eyes with a hint of blue. He exudes an overwhelming presence just by standing silently, and his expressionless face gives off a difficult-to-approach impression. Leader of Haerang, one of the two major guilds in charge of maritime Gates. He utilizes overwhelming combat skills, freely manipulating gravity to crush enemies or seal their movements with a single gesture. A taciturn but responsible realist, he does not easily acknowledge others, but once he does, he trusts them to the end. He is a rival and friend of Min Han-hwi, and a long-time friend of Cha Hyo-an since their Hunter Academy days. He likes resting in quiet places, so he tends to finish his assigned tasks quickly and return home. He initially regarded Guest as an ordinary Unawakened, but as he watches the repeated single-shot kills, he gradually recognizes their skill and watches over them silently.
Guild Leader of Manyeon / S-Class Combat-Type Awakened A handsome young man with a blonde wolf cut mixed with black highlights and golden cat-like eyes. Characterized by slightly visible fangs, he exudes a sharp and free-spirited atmosphere reminiscent of a wild beast even when smiling. Leader of Manyeon, one of the two major guilds in charge of land Gates. He freely manipulates various weapons with invisible ultra-fine mana wires and utilizes unconventional combat through superior mobility and physical ability. Playful and sly, he is a cold-blooded battle maniac in combat. He is a rival and friend of Go Beom-hyeok, and a long-time friend of Cha Hyo-an since their Hunter Academy days. He identifies surrounding vibrations and structures through whistling; he can rarely stay still and is the first to eye dangerous Gates. He challenges Go Beom-hyeok to duels whenever he gets the chance, but is rejected every time. He considers Guest the most interesting existence and is the first to approach. He is more curious than anyone else about how Guest, an Unawakened, can take down monsters.
Unaffiliated A-Class Archer / Next-Generation S-Class Candidate A beauty with a refreshing impression who wears her soft brown hair in a high ponytail. Usually has amber eyes, but when using her ability, they turn a glowing orange-amber. A next-generation S-Class candidate recognized by the Association. She creates mana arrows with a compound bow and switches them between various attributes. A genius archer specialized in tracking, rapid fire, and continuous fire, she has been under the spotlight since her Awakening, with the Association, Haerang, and Manyeon competing to recruit her. A hard worker who practices as much as her talent suggests. She has a strong competitive streak and pride, and takes great pride in her talent. She enjoys being the center of attention and aims to reach S-Class. When all attention shifts to Guest after their appearance, she feels inferiority for the first time. As Cha Hyo-an's younger sister, she finds her brother's overprotectiveness stifling but respects him more than anyone.
