“No. 1 in ranking? President, what are you talking about now?”

“That’s right…you’re not the type of person to make jokes like that…”

“Isn’t that friend a new participant? Just now, there wasn’t even a single magical power”

“Huh? It’s true. That’s right, my friend. What is it really?”

A word from the president of the association caused quite a stir among the gathered rankers and new applicants.

In general, there were murmurs about why the president of the association was making jokes like that, but other types of questions were also rising.

“You look young. How do you know the president of the association? Has anyone seen that friend?”

“This is my first time seeing you…which guild is it?”

“Hey, didn’t you see the horsepower measurement earlier? What kind of guild is this… I don’t think it’s even at the level of an academy”

As the murmur continues, Jihoon catches the sight of the corner of the association president’s mouth rising.

The president of the association achieved his intended goal of attracting attention and showing off friendship.

‘This guy doesn’t look like that, but he’s very calculated and meticulous, isn’t he?’

Jihoon found it quite interesting to see the president of the association dragging him into the rankings and easily achieving his goals with just one word.

Okay, since we decided to get involved anyway, shall we try to adjust the pros and cons?

Jihoon smiles and answers the association president.

“What is your plan? If you participated, you would definitely come in first place”

The association president’s mouth drops open.

The person who brought a hidden emerging powerhouse to the sun.

I don’t know how high he will rise, but it’s clear that he will occupy a spot in the rankings.

I tried to use it to solidify my position as the president of the association by attracting the attention of the rankers, but…

Isn’t this crazy guy doing something he didn’t even ask for?

If you set the table all by yourself, you should just hold a spoon and wait… Why do you want to step forward?

“Hahaha…as expected, Hunter Kang! I really envy your youthful spirit! Hahaha, good luck! Well then, I’ll just leave.”

“Why do you measure horsepower before filling out the participation application? I think it would be a good idea to fix the procedures a bit.”

A word from Ji-hoon, who manages to catch the president of the association as he turns away in a hurry.

Why was his voice so loud? It felt as if this large waiting room was resonating with his voice.

“Haha… I appreciate Hunter Kang’s good opinion. Instruct our employees to find more effective and reliable verification methods -”

“Insolent guy”

A middle-aged man with outstanding white hair walks next to the president of the association, who is sweating and trying to get away from Jihoon at all costs.

“Huh…Huh…Bah…Hello, Hunter Park Jeong-hoon. It’s been a while since I saw you… Hunter Kang here didn’t mean to say that. Please move with me for a moment-”

“Hello, President of the Association. I’m sorry if it’s a pointless interference.

However… his harsh attitude toward the president of the association and his words and actions that do not respect the system make it impossible to tolerate.”

Park Jeong-hoon. Ranked 11th.

As a magic hunter, his pride in his skills was unrivaled.

He was a typical magic fanatic who believed that only magic power and skills were the essence of a hunter, and that hunter abilities could only be improved by increasing the amount of magic power and increasing operational efficiency.

“Hey there. Is this your first time participating in a ranking match?”

“Uncle, do you know me?”

“…?”

When Ji-hoon suddenly speaks informally to Park Jung-hoon, the waiting room instantly freezes.

“…What?”

“Do you know me? They always speak informally.”

“…What is this…”

Park Jeong-hoon turns his head and looks at the association president with an expression of disbelief at what is happening.

What is this guy…

In his eyes, he can see cold sweat running down the left cheek of the association president, who was always overflowing with dignity.

Ranking 11th

This means that it is the 11th strongest in Korea.

After being named as a ranker, or even before that, when I was awakened as an A-class hunter,

He could never have experienced such a ridiculous situation.

I was so shocked that I was speechless and looked at the president of the association without realizing it…

Why is this guy more embarrassed than he is?

What kind of situation is this?

Park Jeong-hoon takes his gaze away from the association president and stares at Ji-hoon again.

“Now…is what you said to me true?”

Even though he had said it right in front of him, he had no choice but to ask it again.

Because it was too absurd to just believe it…

“Is there anyone else here who talks to me informally the first time I meet him? Are your ears blocked? The president of the association next to you is always treated with respect, right? That’s why I respect it as much as possible.”

“Ha…Haha… Hunter Kang, I will apologize on your behalf. First of all, how about calming down and taking a seat and having a cup of tea?”

Park Jeong-hoon was dumbfounded.

In this absurd situation, the president of the association was trying to stop the strange young hunter, not himself.

The person who had watched Jihoon’s magic measurement scene in the waiting room earlier.

Whose recommendation did that guy with less than a handful of magical power get a chance to participate in the rankings?

It was a car I had never thought of before.

“President of the Association, you have a high level of benevolence, so I really respect you for being polite to this guy. But…this guy seems like he needs some training.”

“No, no, Hunter Park! Could you please take a look at my face and be more lenient? The ranking match hasn’t even started yet. At a time when the entire nation’s attention is focused, it would be extremely difficult for the association if problems arose from the day of horse power measurement… Please do me a favor. There are dozens of reporters sitting in the press room…”

“Association President”

Slurp

This time, Ji-hoon’s calm voice reaches the ears of the association president who was trying to stop Park Jeong-hoon.

The president of the association, who has animal-like senses, feels every hair on his body stand up just by hearing that name.

please

please don’t

The president of the association looks at Ji-hoon earnestly, pretending to be pitiful, but a cold word comes out of his mouth.

“What can I skip? I don’t plan on doing that?”

terrestrial

I knew he was crazy, but I had no idea he would act so unexpectedly and without a plan.

No, actually I should have known

This is the guy who took the position of representative of a very large guild and threw it to his friend…

He was the guy who beat up everyone at the Hunter Management Association headquarters, including the security team and the risk management team, and yelled at them to bring him a cup of tea…

The president of the association madly curses his complacent self from earlier, when he only showed his friendship with the emerging powerhouse with a modest greeting and tried to get away with it.

“Hey. How on earth do you know the president of the association?”

“Well. I don’t know, it’s been a while since we met. However… I will just tell you that I was asked to appear in the ranking match due to circumstances, so I came out as a result.”

“…What? Association…your recommender is the president of the association?”

Park Jeong-hoon’s eyes turn to the association president again.

It wasn’t just that.

All the rankers and new participants in the waiting room were all looking at the president of the association.

“Recommendation by the president of the association? Why that guy?”

“It was all thanks to the president of the association that I was able to participate in the ranking match with an incredible amount of horsepower?”

“I heard that even if you don’t become a ranker, you can be recognized as having a certain level of experience just by having a record of participating in ranking matches. I guess he’s the guy who came out aiming for that… Is the association as rotten as it is…”

The president of the association could clearly hear all the murmurs.

Every word is clearly pierced into his ears, and he can feel all the eyes looking at him.

He could never have imagined that a crisis like this would arise in his years of experience as president of the association.

At this moment, he is forced to make a choice.

The situation grew too quickly to just pretend not to notice.

The president of the association looked back and forth between Jihoon and Park Jeonghoon and then began speaking as if he had made up his mind.

“That’s right. Hunter Jihoon Kang here. The person who recommended me to participate in the ranking match is the president of the association.”

“Can you participate?”

Jihoon tilts his head and grabs the pod crookedly.

This crazy guy… doesn’t even tolerate this little detail…

It’s too much to do.

“Ha…haha…I’m speechless. I am the one who asked Hunter Jihoon Kang here to appear in the rankings.”

Boom

A hunter whose association president personally asks him to appear in the rankings?

Everyone’s eyes looking at Jihoon are filled with deep doubt.

“Association… Chairman, what is that… Have you checked the results of this guy’s horsepower measurement? Why are you asking this bastard for such an unprecedented request…”

“Hmm…Hmm…Hunter Kang is someone who proves his skills with visible skills, not things like magical power or hunter rank.”

After thinking about it, the president of the association decides on a clear route.

I realized that it would be impossible to keep a reasonable distance from this crazy guy and take advantage of him, so I immediately got in line.

“But is this guy a ranker? What rank?”

Ji-hoon looks at the association president and asks about Park Jeong-hoon’s ranking.

“…11th place. Hunter Kang.”

“Is it okay to play this ranking match without 11th place?”

“…”

Is it right to stand in line? A deep worry settles around the eyes of the president of the association.
