Hunter Academy’s Battle God

Wrestling had proved most useful throughout time, but most Hunters didn't care about physical training at all.

They thought investing their time in mana usage and practicing their Trait was a better use of their time.

- Percentage of weapons used against monsters -

Guns 72%

Custom Hunter Equipment 10%

Swords 2%

Bows 0.15%

Spears 5%

Etc…

Most city guards used guns. It was easy to rely on hunter equipment and your Trait, but training your body and martial arts was hard and required a lot of time.

Still, Angela practiced wrestling. Martial arts went well with her 'Hands That Didn't Let Go'.

Although she couldn't use it against monsters, grappling was very safe and strong against hunters.

Angela was confident she could destroy any hunter or villain with her bare hands.

'To think that I’d be able to grab her…'

BOOM-!

Angela's suplex affected EunAh.

[52% barrier remaining!]

[Residual damage 25%]

[If the cumulative damage reaches 100%, you'll be kicked out of the portal!]

EunAh couldn't read her hologram. Her eyes had turned white from the suplex.

Boom!

EunAh bounced on the floor. She wasn't able to land properly, so an immense pain spread through her body.

"Cough!"

Her expression hardened.

It wasn't the usual active and relaxed EunAh. She was feeling fear toward Angela.

"You! Ack… you!"

Pain was reduced to half within the portal, but to think she'd still feel so hurt… EunAh breathed heavily.

Angela felt satisfied at EunAh’s glare.

Slide-

Angela moved like a snake pressed herself against EunAh, and then she whispered in a low voice, "Yes. It's that expression… One that looks like it's going to break. That prideful expression… I… I… wanted that."

As Angela mumbled while making a satisfied expression, EunAh ground her teeth and swung her fist.

"Shut up!" She was excited, but the technique was good.

Angela easily blocked EunAh's fist with the palm of her hand.

Paf!

"Huh… Not bad?" She made a surprised expression.

Angela thought that she could cook EunAh very easily by blocking her mana, but the fish's reaction was more aggressive than she thought.

Grab-!

Angela smiled while holding EunAh's fist.

"Your punches… are quite unexpected. Does the rich lady want to fist-fight with me?"

"Ugh!"

Angela's grip strength was so high that EunAh felt her fist being crushed.

Press!

Angela got on top of EunAh's back and pressed on her shoulders.

"Hey, pretty girl. Can you see that?"

Angela turned EunAh's head and pointed to the 2nd-floor auditorium.

"Ugh!

EunAh looked at the auditorium as she continued to struggle, but the 2nd floor's auditorium was empty.

All of the students that said that they would follow her and even the ones that said they'd fight with her had escaped.

"Th-that…" EunAh mumbled in a low voice.

Angela grabbed EunAh's neck and gradually applied strength so that EunAh wouldn’t be immediately knocked out.

Angela could've done a suplex if she wanted to make EunAh lose, but that wasn't her goal.

She wanted EunAh to feel despair.

"Cough!"

"They're AI, data. Despite that, I'm sure they realized who's going to win. That you're going to lose," Angela murmured into EunAh's ears.

"I… won't lose… There's no way…"

Angela pushed EunAh's back with her chest and used her arm to press on EunAh's carotid. It was a rear naked choke. Angela's leg had wrapped around EunAh. Her posture was perfect.

Although she could knock her unconscious in five seconds, Angela ensured she wouldn't faint yet.

"Ugh!"

Her head began to hurt from lack of air. As EunAh's reaction became weaker, Angela smiled.

"I know that expression very well. You want to be comfortable, right? I'm used to it. Everyone makes that expression before hitting the floor."

EunAh once again tried her best to free herself from Angela's choke. Her thoughts got more muddled as time passed.

EunAh began to tear up.

'Why…'

A long time ago, Kim SeokHan had told EunAh, [You're the proud heir of the Shinsung Group. You can have anything you want.]

She’d truly believed that.

When she thought about it, that wasn't the case. As a kid, she wanted to have time with her family, and then when her oppa Kim JunHyuk had gone into a coma, she had wanted to help him.

Now, when she wanted to win more than at any other time…

'What I really wanted… I was never able to get…'

Angela relaxed her arm while looking at EunAh, trying to get hold of herself.

"Are you in pain? Then why don't you answer a few of my questions? If I like the answers… I might let you go once."

"Answers…?"

EunAh's eyes had turned blank.

Angela smiled as if she were having fun.

"Why are you in that party…? I really want to know. You aren't that interested in becoming a hunter, right?"

EunAh wanted to deny Angela's words. She wanted to free herself from the choke and swing her fist while saying, “No”, but the more she tried to deny reality, the harder the choke would become. Angela had the advantage.

"Just from your expression, I know… You aren't the same kind of person as us. Is it a rich lady's hobby? Or, ah! I know. Is it… because of that pretty boy?"

EunAh fell into thought while looking at Angela laughing.

'The reason why I'm in the party…'

It was because she had fun while being with her fellow party members. When she was in the party, she wasn't the heir of the Shinsung Group, she was EunAh, a fellow party member.

She wanted to win so she could prove herself as a party member.

And in the middle of that, there was the party leader, Shin YuSung.

'I understand…'

EunAh wanted to win for Shin YuSung.

That was the victory YuSung wanted.

She couldn't understand why, but she wanted to gift him that victory.

"… y."

Angela relaxed the choke, and a low voice came out of EunAh's mouth. Angela was interested in what she had to say, so she relaxed the choke a bit more.

"What? I can't hear you well. Why don't you say it again?"

" …d …t" As EunAh mumbled in a weak voice again, Angela relaxed the choke a bit more in interest.

"Hmm? What…?"

At that moment…

Whish!

EunAh twisted her body and hit Angela's ribs.

The foundation of punching was pushing forward your arm. EunAh had practiced it more than a thousand times under YuSung, so her arms had quite the destructive power.

"Agh!" Angela breathed heavily after being hit in the ribs. EunAh was freed from the choke. She took that opportunity to stand up.

"Yes. As you said, I remained in the party because of the pretty boy, so what are you going to do about it?"

Paf! BZZT!

EunAh used her electricity while looking down at Angela. Since she was free of Angela's hands, she could freely use mana.

It was time to show people why EunAh's potential had been classified as S+.

"I've treated you well, yet…!" Angela shouted while cleaning her mouth.

"That isn't treating someone well, you pervert."

EunAh raised her hands while making a cold expression.

"Orca!"

BZZT! WHOM-!

She used the new skill she'd obtained from defeating the Lake Dragon.

—Thunder Dragon's Descent.

What descended from the sky wasn't a dragon but an orca made of electricity.

Casting an image you were familiar with was easier, after all.

Paf! BZZT! BZZ!

The orca made of electricity started to descend, but it went into EunAh’s body.

Pang! BZZT!

EunAh's electricity fluctuated while making a ferocious sound.

"Don't you think that I came prepared for electricity? What do you think I have under the uniform?!" Angela said in a strong voice to hide her frustration.

Although it was hidden under the uniform, Angela had an anti-electricity suit under there.

The anti-electricity suit was prepared to counter EunAh, but EunAh wasn't planning to attack Angela with electricity.

'As YuSung taught me…'

A bit faster…

A bit stronger…

The electricity formed from her mana fortified EunAh's body. Because her Trait was Electricity, EunAh had no limit in terms of speed.

If she could control it, her potential was endless. That was why EunAh's potential was ranked as S+.

BZZT! BZZZZT!

Electricity with a blue color poured out.

"Hey…" EunAh called to Angela in a cold voice. EunAh's hair seemed different from usual thanks to her Trait.

'I'll end it with one attack.'

BZZT! BZZT!

The electricity spread in all directions.

"Try to stop this."

Paf!

EunAh's figure disappeared.

Just like YuSung, an afterimage was left behind.

"Yes! Someone like you…! Once I grab you!"

Angela widened her eyes to try to catch EunAh, but EunAh had increased her speed through her Electricity Trait, so Angela would never be able to catch her.

EunAh finally came to a realization.

She'd borrowed the strength of her Trait. Although she still lacked a bit, it was maybe something similar to YuSung’s methods.

She could see it after she swore she'd walk the same path.

"You're too dull."

A blue afterimage passed past Angela.

Only very few hunters were able to see what happened.

"What…?"

Angela turned her head.

[52% barrier remaining!]

[Residual Damage 99%]

[If the cumulative damage reaches 100%, you'll be kicked out of the portal!]

It was too late, EunAh's punch had already pierced her.

BOOM!

Angela knelt from the force of the punch, and EunAh looked down at her while making a relaxed expression.

"I couldn't do it with one punch."

Angela's expression distorted. She'd been humiliated. Despite EunAh's Trait being electricity, she'd lost to martial arts.

"When did you learn such…?"

She had no choice but to admit it…

EunAh's attack with added electricity was too clean. The punch she'd perfected while following YuSung's harsh training regime had shown results.

"You lost, and I won." EunAh crossed her arms and snorted.

She'd proven herself as one of Gaon's Sevens and as a member of YuSung's party.
