Chapter 7

3. Aptitude Test (1)

I called an ambulance first, and then the police.

“Come to think of it.”

Cha Shin Hyeon, who had been waiting for Cha Eun-seol’s call to end, opened her mouth.

“It looks like this guy has a lot of grudges on you. What happened?”

“that is… … In other words, it’s a trivial reason.”

Cha Eun-seol, who was asked the question, let out a sigh.

“I had a confession about two months ago.”

“what? to this guy?”

“Huh.”

It was also good to step on. I have no intention of meddling with my older sister’s relationship, but it’s absolutely the norm for such a trashy guy to talk to my brother later.

Pests must be eradicated in advance.

Cha Eun-seol continued.

“By the way, this person doesn’t have a very good reputation within the guild. especially among women. Should I say that a woman’s relationship is promiscuous? That’s why I refused with good words…”

“I want to believe that it is not a new wave of vindictiveness because it was a car.”

“Maybe it’s a people magazine.”

“her.”

Cha Shin Hyeon smirked.

“Looks like a bit of a bastard. But isn’t he the same team leader? If you are not your boss, there seems to be a limit to bullying.”

“So, I’m just going to be patient. I get annoyed, but I don’t do it so openly that I get caught. You can’t report bad jokes or rude attitudes… … . Our team leader is the son of a high-ranking guild, so it’s no use stabbing him at his superiors.”

“Did you even go to the back?”

It’s not the first time I’ve met a class in Moorim, who has an arrogant personality, cheeky behavior, likes to show off, reveals women, and bullies others by taking advantage of their humble status.

This is often the case mainly with the successors of a moderately powerful clan. It’s a tiring case that thinks he’s very good even himself because his father’s family is doing well in his neighborhood.

In today’s terms, we can say that they are young people who are good at Gapjil. It was these guys who accidentally touched the master on the road and made an accident.

As if Seo Joong-hyun had an accident that touched him.

“The more I know, the less sympathy I have at all.”

Mumbling Cha Shin Hyeon’s eyes grew cold.

“He could be dead before the ambulance arrives.”

Cha Eun-seol, who had read the intentions in the words, spoke roundly.

“There is a difference between having a seizure and falling down and dying altogether. If you get into an argument over why you didn’t take first aid, it won’t end as much as you can’t eat lunch.”

“Why are we not even paramedics? You should have reported it.”

“It’s the law. Because the case where the hunter dies in the dungeon and the case where he dies outside the dungeon are treated differently. In fact, it’s rare for a superhuman hunter to have a common accident, right?”

“… … I won’t be a problem even if a troubled bastard dies from illness.”

Even while kicking her tongue, Cha Shin Hyeon refused to confirm and kill.

He was a frivolous bastard without much inspiration to kill, but that’s why he didn’t want to get entangled more than this. He was still bothered enough that he had to go to the police station for a while.

“I wish you would come sooner.”

Pasta, which I don’t like very much, is now missing.* * *

Seo Joong-hyun was picked up by an ambulance, and Cha Eun-seol and Cha Shin Hyeon accompanied them to the police station as witnesses.

Cases related to Hunter are unconditionally handled by the Special Police, or Special Police for short. Although it was an internal police organization, it was also an organization with a strong sense of independence.

Since there are often conflicts between hunters and hunters, or between hunters and ordinary people, the special police also dealt with 50,000 cases a lot.

From their point of view, this case was very ambiguous.

Seo Joong-hyun is a level 30 mid-level hunter, and also a fighter who is a higher class of warriors. He was a strong fighter who caught monsters with his bare hands. No matter how serious a disease may be, it cannot crush the face of a hunter who has simply fallen and damage his internal organs.

The police officer was well aware of this fact.

However, the culprit could never be identified.

According to eyewitness accounts, the two did nothing other than a brief argument with Seo Joong-hyun.

Seo Joong-hyun fell alone and vomited blood.

Still, there is a higher probability that it was the work of the Cha Shin Hyeon siblings than the mysterious Hunter A who passed by, so he brought them to the police station as a reference. Since there was no evidence, the accused could not be treated.

“Mr. Cha Shin Hyeon.”

In a small separate room, the investigator and Cha Shin Hyeon sat down opposite each other.

“Look, there was a missing person report 14 years ago, right?”

“It would have been. The disappearance was about that.”

Cha Shin Hyeon was not without a case to the extent that he even lowered his words to an investigator he met in a business relationship at the police station. If you talk nonsense until this point, it’s just not cheap.

The modern informal body is a bit awkward, but the formal high-level words are familiar enough. Because it was the tone that Moorim’s juniors used to talk to him. Of course, he can’t even remember when he wrote, but at least he didn’t feel repulsed.

“The missing sentence was four years ago, and it was canceled two days ago. Is that correct?”

“Yes.”

Family members of the missing person usually report only to the police, but not to the courts for sentencing.

The report has literally disappeared, so we ask you to find it, but the moment the sentence is issued, the person is legally dead. There’s no way you can ask for a family you couldn’t find to be treated as dead.

However, when her parents died suddenly four years ago, due to inheritance problems, Cha Eun-seol was forced to file for a missing person, and since then, Cha Shin Hyeon has been dead.

It was only yesterday that the sentence was canceled and he was revived.

“Excuse me, but can you tell me where you have been?”

“Excuse me, so don’t ask. I do not want to answer.”

Cha Shin Hyeon drew a blunt line at the investigator’s question.

“Isn’t this even related to the case?”

“It doesn’t necessarily mean that there is no relationship.”

The investigator said cautiously.

“Currently, Cha Shin Hyeon is not registered as a hunter, but during the 14 years he went missing, he gained the ability of a hunter and it could be a problem if he used it.”

“Do you mean that I am the culprit?”

“It is not. It’s just that there is a possibility.”

The investigator got it right.

But, sadly, Cha Shin Hyeon had a hole in it.

“I’m sorry, but I don’t even have a status window, let alone a hunter.”

“Yes?”

“I was not in a position to receive a hunter aptitude test or something, and my missing sentence had just been canceled yesterday, so I couldn’t afford to receive it in Korea. So he doesn’t have a status window.”

“If you check it, it will be revealed soon, right?”

“Try it. It’s not a lie.”

The investigator put on a puzzled expression on Cha Shin Hyeon’s calm and dignified attitude.

“… … Please wait a moment.”

He hurriedly left the room.

Cha Shin Hyeon waited with a relaxed expression.

It took a while and it took quite a while. About 30 minutes later, the investigator came back with something.

It was a pure white cube with a side length of about 10 centimeters.

“What is it?”

“It’s called the Mystic Cube.”

As he sat down, the investigator briefly explained.

“Like I’m holding it right now, it’s just an ordinary cube to someone who already has a status window. However, the cube will react when touched by someone without a status window. They airlifted items used during the Hunter aptitude test.”

“Right. Can I just touch it?”

“Yes. Please do this with your hands.”

Cha Shin Hyeon meekly followed the instructions.

Place it on the desk with the palm of his right hand facing the sky.

“let’s begin.”

The Mystic Cube touched the palm of my hand.

Whoa!

At that moment, the cube trembled like a vibrating cell phone. Soon after, the cube glowed like ice cream melted in the sun, and its shape slowly began to crumble.

‘What.’

Cha Shin Hyeon raised her skills to the maximum in an unusual phenomenon. If there was any sign that something was wrong with his body, he was ready to respond immediately.

Fortunately, the pure white light did not seem to be the kind that directly harmed the body. A viscous, honey-like liquid slowly flowed over Cha Shin Hyeon’s body. It starts with his hands, climbs up his arms, and now begins to spread to his torso.

“Is this okay?”

“It’s a normal process. … … You really are a normal person.”

The investigator mumbled in a slightly weak voice.

Without the status window, you can’t really do anything. You can’t level up, and your stats and skills don’t apply at all.

If you compare it to a game, you don’t even create a character. Absolutely perfect people. There was absolutely no chance of being a suspect.

Meanwhile, Cha Shin Hyeon didn’t have to worry about the investigator’s change of heart. He was on the alert for the changes that were happening to him.

‘It’s very offensive to the senses.’

I mean, it feels like you’re wearing an extra layer of unnecessary clothes? Cha Shin Hyeon’s senses, which had been trained to the limit, could faintly perceive the presence of light overlaid on her body.

At least it wasn’t the kind of power he usually deals with.

As a test, he secretly projected his aggression out of his body so that the investigator did not notice.

His power passed through the unidentified light that surrounded his body.

‘It means that we can’t influence each other.’

If I could spend a little more time watching it, it might be hard to figure out the identity right now. Interference was impossible. There was nothing he could do other than leave and watch.

Finally, the light enveloped Cha Shin Hyeon’s whole body.And it disappeared as if it had never been there from the beginning.

“It’s done.”

The investigator, who had already made up his mind that Cha Shin Hyeon was an innocent person, said in a gentle voice.

“Now, there is no need to undergo a separate examination elsewhere. We will contact the competent authority and take administrative action.”

Looking around his body, Cha Shin Hyeon questioned.

“What has changed? Is this just the Hunter Aptitude Test?”

“The aptitude test is just a process of giving a status window. This is why it is often called the blessing of the goddess or baptism. Since supernatural forces are at work, no further procedures are required. The status window will tell you what class Cha Shin Hyeon has aptitude for and how good he is.”

“i See.”

“Let’s try it. She says aloud that it’s a status window, and when a strong association is made in her head, the status window floats in front of her eyes. There are surprisingly many people who have a hard time calling up the status window in the first place because they cannot distinguish between a simple ‘thought’ and a firm ‘will’.”

It is normal for ordinary people to have a hard time. In everyday life, there is no need to distinguish between thoughts and wills.

But it was very familiar to Cha Shin Hyeon. Her aggression was energy controlled by her will, and Cha Shin Hyeon’s ability to handle aggression reached a level where there is no place to go higher than Moorim’s best.

No, putting all that aside, Cha Shin Hyeon is the body that opened and closed the status window thousands of times during the Moorim days. Although the type of status window was different, the method was the same, but there was no way it could not be done.

By the way, there was a reason for the investigator to explain this kindly.

“And if you succeed in summoning, would you mind revealing your level and skill to me? In the same way, if you shout ‘Level and skill reveal!’, it will be visible to me too.”

“You want me to show you?”

“You just got it anyway, so you probably don’t have any special skills at level 1. So it doesn’t matter? If you show it to me, it will be a sure proof of your innocence.”

“… … Well, I see. Status window.”

As he spoke again and again, a mysterious character of light was engraved into the air.

It was not surprising that two status windows appeared as if competing with each other. Either it doesn’t float at all, it mixes weirdly, or both. It was the best out of the three expected cases, so there was no reason to panic.

The problem is not that.

‘In no class… … Is the stat 0?’

Cha Shin Hyeon’s forehead was wrinkled.
