The Hunter of the Other World Who Is Being Misunderstood

Chapter 18

Awakening Skills.

A popular expression used to refer to the supernatural powers of awakened people.

It is said that all awakened people learn at least one skill at the moment of awakening.

However, because this planets magic was still in its early stages, it had many limitations.

Strangely, Earths magicians can only handle one type of magic that they acquired at the time of awakening.

Jung Haseong, who uses the fire attribute, cannot acquire ice magic, no matter how much he trains. 

If an Earth wizard wants to use magic from another system, there is only one way.

They say that only after spending close to the cost of a house on a magical tool called a [Skill Stone] can one obtain a skill with a new attribute.

If you dont have the talent, even that wont work. 

However, 

Anyway, this isnt whats important.

The situation was a little different here.

This is because I am a reincarnated soul who has already learned magic as much as I can.

In theory, I could use every kind of skill on Earth as long as the conditions were met.

Im such a genius.

But the problem is

He is unable to show his abilities right now. 

Meanwhile, an incident occurred that drew the S-class Hunters enthusiastic attention to me.

Even though I was killed by Kang Changho, I somehow ended up making Jung Haseong angry. 

So I thought.

If I keep going like this, Ill end up dying on someone elses planet.

Thanks to this, I continued my research with fire on top of my feet

Its past the appointment time. When will he come?

First, let me start with the conclusion.

I finally found a way after 60 hours of effort. 

How to use magic.

I, Im so sorry Im late! Suddenly, the company contacted me and wanted to talk briefly! 

Ah, youre here. 

This body is currently unable to exchange magical energy due to a broken lung.

However, since breathing is functioning normally, the bodys magic power should be able to be used to a very small point.

If the amount is not enough to cast magic, I can artificially increase it. 

Dont be sorry. Youre here to help me. 

I am currently gathering ingredients for <Magic Booster>

That was the reason I came to this building. 

Anyway, its been a while since you paid your debts, but I continue to rely on you because I have nobody else to ask. 

No! Its okay. I have a lot of time anyway.

Ahn Yoonseung gasped for air and finally spoke up. 

And theres one more thing about debt. Last time when an EX-Class gate appeared. You pushed me to the other side to save me.

Oh, well 

I still have a lot to return the favor to! You dont have to worry! Hyung-nim! 

Anyway, hes a very friendly alien neighbor.

Yeah. Anyway. 

I adjusted Kim Kiryeos cheap shirt, which I always wore, and pointed to the building in front.

If I go in with you, I wont be kicked out, right?

Unlike the angular buildings lined up everywhere, this building is built in a round, cylindrical shape.

It looks like a huge tower. I listened to Ahn Yoonseungs voice while looking at the glass in the building.

Yes! Im sure because the Korea Magic Tower even replied to the mail. 

Korean Magic Tower.

This is the name of the organization we will visit today.

Is it one of the big guilds that represents this country?

But did you really get kicked out of the door when you came alone yesterday?

I have stopped by here in the past. Just 16 hours ago.

No, thats. I barely searched and found ingredients that could be used to make a potion but the gate where the material comes out happened to be privately owned.

I cant believe you can even buy and sell gates!

The only way to enter a private gate is with permission from the owner.

So, I found the information on the Internet and went to the Korea Magic Tower to ask permission for it, and what did they say at the entrance? 

Hmm, people in suits popped out and told me to get out. To be exact, he asked me to show him my ID, so I showed him my Hunters ID, but he suddenly raised his voice

The first impression is not very good.

I shrugged my shoulders. Ahn Yoonseung, who saw this, made a shocked expression. 

Even though this is a large guild, they dont look at anyone below C-Class. If you introduce yourself as an F-Class awakened person, you will get kicked out.

Is that so? 

Anyway, why did Hyung test so low when theres so many inconveniences 

Hmph. 

Ahn Yoonseung muttered something to himself and then took a deep breath. His face shows that he just made a mistake. 

N, no! Its nothing. Lets go in now! I made an appointment to visit under my name!

Ah, yeah. 

Did he just stop trying to criticize me for saying my awakening level was so low? 

A person could be F-Class

Apologize to our Kiryeo

I was a little taken aback and shook my head.

Then we entered the building.

Its huge.

An open lobby.

Marble tiles that are so clean that they make you feel cold.

The building is really nice. The people living inside are the problem.

Huh? Hunter Ahn Yoonseung!

As I was looking around for a moment, the employee at the entrance recognized the A-Class and spoke.

I also knew that employee. 

Isnt this the security guard who made a rotten expression when he saw my F-Class hunter ID when I came alone yesterday? 

-What is it, F-Class? Ha, I think you may have mistaken it for the human resources office in the back, but this is not a place for someone like you to come. Please leave first. 

But at the time, he had such a sour face 

Ahn Yoonseung-ssi! Im always watching your performance well! I heard on the news that you are still the first to respond to dungeon break incidents these days? Im a huge fan!

The employee laughed so hard that his face crumpled. The attitude is completely different from when I was there.

I am constantly scraping articles that feature Hunter-nim. Oh! I kept you for too long. What brings you here? 

I stood there silently watching the situation until Ahn Yoonseung revealed the purpose of his visit.

I contacted you in advance through the guild, and I have something to say to the representative of the Magic Tower. 

Oh, was the guild leader at the headquarters today?

The reply says yes.

A company whose main source of revenue is Hunter activities.

It is referred to as a guild in industry terms.

Among them, Korea Magic Tower was a large guild with many hunters, but in the end, the center of power was one person.

We decided to meet the representative of the Korea Magic Tower today.

As expected, Hunter Ahn Yoonseung-nim. There are people lined up to meet the representative  here, but no one can make an appointment! 

The security guard continued to praise the A-class hunter in an excited voice, and Yoonseung smiled awkwardly at his words.

Thank you for your words.

Then, if you want to go inside, please wear your visitors pass first. Here it is. 

Dont you have one more? There are two of us?

However 

Dont tell me, that security guard. Did he completely forget about me because he was distracted with Ahn Yoonseung?

2 people?

The security guard looked around in surprise.

Huh, I think Ive seen this person before 

Then he noticed me and frowned. It looks like he is slowly remembering something. 

Like pushing someone with that huge shoulder, or snorting and making a sarcastic comment upon seeing a Hunters ID.

Those kinds of memories.

Ugh!

Do you remember now?

The security guards expression hardened in an instant. But I didnt care and greeted him. 

Hello? 

Even the security guards eyes became shaky when Ahn Yoonseung told them that I was his friend. 

I, isnt this personF-Class? 

Yeah, well. But why all of a sudden?

No, thats.

Just a few hours ago.

He just didnt kick it. He still cant believe the beggar he chased away after scaring him away returned with an A-Class.

I, I was rude yesterday. According to the companys regulations, the F-Class was not allowed to enter for safety reasons. Ah I

He lowered his head, even breaking into a cold sweat.

And he treated us like we were some kind of master and escorted us to the information desk.

As expected, hes kind in front of A-Class. 

I said it lightly. Ahn Yoonseung snorted and answered when he heard this. 

Right. He doesnt know what kind of person Hyung-nim is. 

Yoonseung glanced at the security guard as if it were ridiculous. Honestly, I dont know why.

I was distracted while Yoonseung was talking to the desk staff.  

I am Ahn Yoonseung, an A-Class hunter from the Neo Sisters Guild. I sent an email yesterday afternoon.

Youre talking about gate entry, right? 

Yes. I heard in the reply that I should talk to the representative directly.

But, wait a second 

The representatives room is on the top floor. Please take the elevator. 

If Im not mistaken, the desk staffs reaction was somewhat ambiguous. 

He seemed to be constantly hesitating, as if he were standing in an uncomfortable position.

Furthermore, there is no one to show us the way this time.

Do we have to go on our own?

Lets go to the elevator first.

Ahn Yoonseung nodded and headed toward the elevator, as if he had expected something. It was my first time riding a cultural object.

Oh.

When Ahn Yoonseung presses the elevator button, the door of the square box closes, and I feel like my body is floating.

Maybe its because of the acceleration that goes up.

I was amazed by new technologies that did not exist in our world. However, my excited heart quickly fell to the ground.

[This is the 60th floor. The door will be open.]

-Ding.

The door opens with a nice voice.

What is this? I definitely pressed the 60th floor button. 

The moment I got off the elevator, I realized something was wrong.

This is at most the second floor?

The road comes into view outside the windshield. I cant even see the tops of the street trees. 

This is too low to be called the 60th floor.

Is the elevator broken? 

I looked out the window without understanding what was happening, and Ahn Yoonseung immediately opened his mouth. 

That, Hyung. Im sorry for not explaining it in advance. But I think we are being tested.

Test? 

Actually, the representative of Magic Tower So I mean the guild master. Theres a rumor that persons personality is a little strange.

Is that so? 

Since there are only three S-Class hunters in Korea, it is natural that it is not easy to make an appointment.

Ahn Yoonseung puts his hand on his bald head and groans.

The representative here acts like shell definitely meet you, but when you actually come to the company, she jokes around! She pushes visitors into a maze she created.

Is this the maze?

Yes. I heard that the internal structure of the Magic Tower headquarters building is a mixed up

Is he the type of person who enjoys watching visitors wander in a maze?

Well probably have to get to the top floor on our own. I will only meet people who pass my test, I guess thats roughly it.

After hearing that story, I suddenly noticed a fire hydrant placed next to the emergency exit stairs.

This was written there in yellow paint: Press in case of distress..

I ignored the escape system and came up with another insight.

Anyway, if the elevator doesnt work, shall we take the stairs?

Ahn Yoonseung obediently followed my suggestion, but the results were not good. 

Huh?

Then, we take the emergency stairs to the third floor of the building.

What is this again?

Normally, there should be a hallway in the building, but this time, there is an underground parking lot beyond the door.

It makes me dizzy. 

Yes. When you open the door, the space connects to the wrong place, and you end up spinning around.

Indeed, it is not a waste to call it a maze.

First, we decided to go back to the second floor, where we were earlier. And we talked while moving.

Yoonseung-ah, how many people passed this test? Approximately how long does it take?

Im sorry, but I havent heard anything. Maybe there were 0 people who passed

Dont tell me that theres been no one until now. Besides, the employees probably know the way, but has there ever been any information leaked? 

Of course, only a few people will know about the executive office.

There is no review of successful applicants, as if there is any provision for security maintenance.

Anyway, how can we break this complicated maze with our bare hands? Are you asking to waste even expensive items? Updated from nov𝒆lbIn.(c)om

Ahn Yoonseung seemed very dissatisfied with the treatment of the Korea Magic Tower. 

Of course, we requested a visit quickly, but were still upset if she jokes around so rudely.

She made it well.

But as time went on, I became more and more interested. 

The magical maze makes me feel the atmosphere of my hometown.

I like this place. So I really wanted to meet the magician who made the maze.

Hyung, what should we do? Should we split up and open the door? If we continue like this, well just be wasting time.

Dont worry. Yoonseung-ah. 

Because that wont happen.

The structure is so simple, but seeing how difficult it is, I guess Earthlings cant see the way

No matter how useless I became, there are still things I know how to do.
