Chapter 16: The Hall of Hunters



Office of the Vice President of the Korea Hunters Association.

"...So this is your first time?"

Vice President Kim San-ho waved the documents he was holding and made a serious expression.

The title of the document is .

The document contained a compilation of posts from the Hunter System Community. Section Chief Park Cheol-jung, a 5th-grade civil servant and head of the emergency response division, nodded.

Today, his sharp-faced face looked very tired.

"This is a system I've never seen before. We thought that if we just attacked the gate, it would be over."

Manager Park Cheol-jung drank some water as if his throat was burning and continued talking.

"It was revealed that there is a system for grading gate raids. Even the Hunter System itself has been put on full notice."

"Keep talking."

"Yes, after it became known that there was a grading system, many hunters began to attack the F-rank gates. I guess it's because they also wanted to get an S+ rank. But..."

"but?"

all failed. Most were at the B or A rank limit. They said that even though they killed all the monsters within 30 seconds.

"every?"

"Yes, even Jo Yong-hoon, an A-class hunter who was on the verge of defeating an S-class, failed."

Vice President Kim San-ho stroked his chin with a serious expression.

If you're a hunter, Jo Yong-hoon is a familiar name.

There is even talk that if a new S-class hunter appears in Korea in the near future, it will be Hunter Jo Yong-hoon.

But even though such a Jo Yong-hoon hunter put aside his pride and went for the F-class gate, he couldn't break the highest record?

That means,

"...So there's a new S-class hunter."

There were occasional cases like that.

Hunters who wander alone without reporting to the Hunter Association.

'I don't know if they don't want to be famous, or if there's some reason for it... but there are people like that.'

These hunters also use other hunters when attacking gates.

Because another hunter steps forward as the party leader, and the party members below him enter, that's it.

Moreover, since the system allows you to set it as a nickname instead of your real name, there was no way to know.

'Because it's not a system made by humans...'

The Hunter System and Gate suddenly appeared one day.

We updated our own features and fixed errors when they occurred.

I tried to hack somehow, but all failed.

So there was an aspect of living a complacent life.

Something has happened that has injected tension into the hunter industry that has become so loose.

Manager Park Cheol-jung took out another document.

"Vice-Chairman, and although it hasn't been fully verified yet, there is information that has been found through statistics.

The probability of it being an error is less than 30%, and it's something that could turn the hunter industry upside down."

A less than 30% chance of error seems like a very high chance of error.

But less than a week had passed since the incident occurred.

Considering that, the information seems to be fairly accurate.

Vice President Kim San-ho swallowed dry saliva.

"What now?"

"Since it's such a thick document, I'll summarize it briefly. Since our country's hunter, Captain Ae-gak, registered in the Hunter's Hall, the Red Lizard Nest has not regenerated."

"What does that mean?"

Manager Park Cheol-jung's expression became serious.

"The original Red Lizard Nest respawns commonly. They occur inside F-class gates and respawn more than ten times a day."

"I know that too."

"Yes, but the Red Lizard Nests are not respawning. I checked the situation in other countries, and I heard that there are posts on the community saying that the Red Lizard Nests are suddenly not respawning there as well."

The leather and hearts that come from catching red lizards are efficient for crafting items.

It has a basic fire attribute and comes from an F-class gate, so it is cost-effective.

It is an item favored by item creators, but it seems that there are fewer and fewer items for sale in the item market.

The prices of the items that were available for sale were also rising rapidly.

"So what the... ah... no way?"

The eyes of Vice President Kim San-ho and Manager Park Cheol-jung met in the air.

Gulp.

Vice President Kim San-ho's eyes shook as if an earthquake had occurred.

Manager Park Cheol-jung nodded and spoke calmly.

Although he spoke calmly, the content of his remarks was enough to turn the hunting industry, if not the entire world, upside down.

"I think I found a way to remove the gate forever."

"....Are you serious right now?"

Vice President Kim San-ho looked at Manager Park Cheol-jung with eyes of disbelief.

But Manager Park Cheol-jung's eyes did not waver.

"yes."

"...The person who set this record is the Captain of Attachment... or is he?"

"yes."

"Isn't there a record of the request to conquer that gate? I think we can find it if we investigate it thoroughly."

Manager Park Cheol-jung shook his head firmly.

"It will be immediately abolished because of the Hunter Act. And the application system is not something we created, but

something that came about naturally, so it's difficult."

Vice President Kim San-ho let out a sigh.

Apply for a gate raid at the Hunter Association, and send messages to each other among hunters.

All these systems were not created by humans.

It was just something that came along with the gate.

"Isn't there CCTV?"

"CCTVs within a 500m radius of the building where the Hunter Association is located are not for recording. This is due to the Hunter Law. Of course, there is information obtained through CCTVs located outside of that area... but it seems that it will be difficult to even view them due to the Hunter Law. It will be difficult until the Hunters themselves agree."

The hunters who appear in the news also had their portrait rights granted to them.

Hunters could not use personal information such as faces or names without permission.

"CCTV outside the radius... Is there a way to view that? Even if we just filter it down to the hunters who were near the Hunter Association that day, I think we can reduce the overall population considerably."

"But we need to get a majority vote from other hunters who have nothing to do with this matter."

"...It's not easy."

Vice President Kim San-ho frowned.

Since the Hunters were created, the government has been in a state of emergency.

Hunters are those who can kill monsters with their bare hands.

They were in danger of overthrowing the country at any time if they wanted to.

The government tried its best not to upset the hunters.

That's how the Hunter Law was created.

Tax benefits, privacy protection, automatic disposal, and more.

That's gonna be a liability.

Even if a Hunter vote were to be held, it was questionable whether the Hunters who had nothing to do with this matter would agree.

Vice President Kim San-ho, who had been stroking his chin, suddenly drank a bottle of water.

Gulp gulp.

Vice President Kim San-ho, who emptied a bottle of water in an instant, crumpled the empty bottle.

Still.

Vice President Kim San-ho said with a solemn expression.

"Proceed with the investigation without the Hunters' vote. I will take full responsibility."

For the first time, Manager Park Cheol-jung looked embarrassed.

"Vice President---"

Vice President Kim San-ho shook his head firmly.

"It's a matter of national destiny. I don't care if my balls fly off."

Manager Park Cheol-jung was slightly moved by the burning passion he felt from Vice President Kim San-ho.

"Yes, I understand. I will definitely find the hunter who set the record."

"Okay, let's go out."

Manager Park Cheol-jung bowed and greeted me before leaving the vice president's office.

thud.

A faint smile appeared on the face of Vice President Kim San-ho, who was left alone.

The fate of the country? That was none of his business.

Hunter's Law? It's okay to break it as long as you have a reason.

Just how many people have connections in the National Assembly?

And this time, the justification was so overwhelming that it overflowed.

They say we can eliminate gates forever in our country, so why is that Hunter Law important?

Vice President Kim San-ho smiled faintly, eating the snacks on the table.

Crisp.

'If I do well, I could become the president of the World Hunters Association, not just the president of the Korean Hunters Association.'
