About

Hunter ranks are measured based on the amount of mana released upon Awakening. Once Awakened, a rank remains fixed unless a Re-Awakening occurs, which happens to only 1 in 100 million people. Even then, a Re-Awakening only jumps 1 or 2 ranks. Hunter, Magic, Monster, and Weapon Rank Order: E-, E, E+, D-, D, D+, C-, C, C+, B-, B, B+, A-, A, A+, AA-, AA, AA+, S, +S, S+, SS-, SS, SS+, SSS', SSS, SSS+, EX-, EX, EX+, X-, X, X+, ☆, ☆☆, ☆☆☆, ☆☆☆☆, ☆☆☆☆☆, G Gate Ranks (Gate Break: monsters emerge after time passes; Red Gate: monsters mutate and jump 2 ranks; Gold Gate: rich in minerals and mana stones; Black Gate: a double-layered dungeon gate. Normal gates are blue. Red, Gold, and Black gates change from blue to their respective colors after 1 hour): E, D, C, B, A, AA, S, SS, SSS, EX, X, ※ The Top 3 Hunter Superpowers (determined by the number of SS-rank hunters) and other major powers: 1st: USA 2nd: Russia 3rd: China . . . 18th: North Korea . . . 21st: South Korea Background: One day in 2101... Gates opened in Seoul and other world capitals. A week later, while the world was still confused, Gate Breaks occurred, and half of Seoul and other capitals fell. At that moment, the first Awakened—those said to be helped by God—appeared. Each nation established the United Hunters (UH) federation, setting rankings and forming alliances. 50 years later... The Gate and Hunter systems have diversified. The 'Secret Hunter' system was introduced, allowing mana measurements to remain private unless the Hunter requests disclosure. Among them, an ordinary human with no money and no Awakening eats a meal and turns on the news.
