21 – At times like this, be faithful to your desires
“bang! bang! bang!”
Sounds of bullets at precise intervals.
And bullets that hit the target perfectly.
While watching those scenes, I was meticulously checking the skills of the hunters.
The people I see at this moment are the Black Hunters belonging to the Dreamers.
Among them, he was looking at the combat power of former B-class hunters.
‘I see… Even considering that they were former B-class hunters, this is definitely not an average skill. If you look at the basic level, it’s just a little bit less than the A-class of a lot of troops.
There is a kind of reference point in the way to rank hunters.
First of all, those who received basic hunter treatment started with D-class hunters.
Immediately after that, they will go through adaptation and basic training so that they can get used to the strengthened body.
So, although physical adaptation has been completed to some extent, C-class hunters who still have little practical experience are assigned to units from then on to gain experience in combat, and after gaining some experience in several battles, the Hunter Become a B-class hunter who occupies the majority of them.
This is where you can call it a turning point.
B-class hunters will decide whether they will continue to stay in B-class or rise higher depending on their talents.
And, from that point of view, Dreamers’ B-class hunters are definitely the best in the B-class category, but…
When I saw it by my standards, it was showing a little bit inferior compared to the A-class, which was able to fight alone with the Abyss.
‘Of course, I can’t be sure until I use it in real combat, but I can see that I have one or two regrettable points in the evaluation process right now. Assuming that one of them falls in the center of the Abyss group… there are probably only one or two at most who can last for more than a minute…’
So, through my experience and knowledge so far, I calmly evaluated the people here and at the same time selected some of those who had the potential to grow to A-class in the future.
Of course, the above is the standard I have judged based on my strict standards,
In reality, the reference point is much looser than S class..
It was the so-called A-class hunters who could sneak up if they met their parents a little better or had a pretty face.
In that respect, if you put them together with the A-ranks of the actual Hunter Guild, it would have been a very worthwhile fight.
There would be differences depending on the unit, but if it was a place other than the 28th guild, where I strictly allowed promotion based on skill alone, a fairly interesting article would have been created.
‘Anyway, with this level of power, it’s much better than I thought. If you combine the power of Are, Kwon Soon, and Glass from earlier, you can handle A-class missions without any burden. S-class isn’t impossible, but considering the damage that will happen in the process, it’s best to avoid it.’
From the point of view of a commander preparing for battle, the most important thing is to understand the capabilities of allies.
There is a saying that if you know your enemy and know yourself, you will not be in danger in a hundred battles.
That doesn’t mean that there’s no problem simply fighting a hundred battles of any kind.
Knowing the exact capabilities of their allies allows commanders to know more precisely what and how much they can do with their own strength.
And then about the enemy…
Precisely, knowing the strength of the enemy, the commander can calculate whether or not he can fight them and how much damage he will suffer in the process.
Then automatically the commander can avoid reckless battles,
Only battles that can be won can be fought, or even if defeated, the damage can be minimized and meaningless sacrifices can be prevented.
In that respect, in the past few days, I have first of all myself,
I’ve been doing my best to figure out the exact strategy of Dreamers here, and today I can finally get a clear reference point.
‘Really… When I was in the Hunter Guild before, it took me a few weeks to figure out the power of allies. I thought it would be finished in just a few days here.’
All of this, unlike those damn bitches, it was because I was able to focus on my work without supporting myself in the small details.
At that time, far from observing training like now, I had to go back and watch combat videos countless times while sleeping through the night in a hurry, and I had to figure out the capabilities of my allies.
As it was a video from the past, there were some inaccuracies, and as I had to look for several videos to find information about one person, now that I think about it, it was something I really don’t want to do again.
However, in hindsight, he had no regrets about himself as he was able to save the lives of A and B class hunters several times even in critical situations.
Although the process was much easier, the reason why I prioritize grasping the power of my allies like now is because of the confidence that comes from this experience.
‘Well, then.. with this, you must have figured out the strength of your allies. Shall we pick out a request in earnest soon?’
The situation about ‘I’ is finished with this.
From now on, it was my turn to find out more about the ‘enemy’ I had to deal with.

“Is that so?.. I still train the hunters myself… ”
“Yeah, not only that, but after training is over, I’m sitting up most of the night looking at the mission chart. To be honest, I felt that it was a little scary from the point of view of watching it.”
“ha… ”
At Kwon Soon’s words, Areh let out a heavy sigh.
Although she had made some assumptions about the current situation.
The lieutenant she brought was none other than Lee Jin-hyeon, and Are already knew very well what kind of person he was.
A man with a strong sense of responsibility for his work and a personality that wants everything to be done perfectly.
Aren’t they the ones who have carried out their work like a knife while undergoing terrible abuse among those bitches who would not be satisfied even if they had to grind it?
Considering such past achievements, it was only natural to see Jin-hyeon working with passion while reducing his sleep over the past few days as an aide-de-camp.
‘But… it’s not good to overdo it. What if I get hurt while doing that…’
Are, who openly shows deep concern on his face.
At that time.. Watching such a are, Kwon Soon began to put a smile on his lips as if he was having fun.
“Whoops. Do you look worried? Well, he’s the prince whom Are really hard to bring, so he’s going to be good.”
“Yes, honestly. Even now, when I think of him struggling for us, my heart aches. If possible, I would like to have a cup of coffee while staying by his side.”
“… there. No matter how much it is, if you openly accept it like that, it’s a little awkward.”
It was Kwon Soon who spoke with a bit of teasing, but Are answered right away without showing even the slightest hesitation.
Seeing her like this, rather, Kwon Soon felt embarrassed and began to blush slightly.
“Um.. um.. If you’re that worried, you can just go there yourself. Like you said, get yourself a cup of coffee.”
“N.. Yes?”
Are, slightly surprised by Kwon Soon’s words.
Seeing her like this, Kwon Soon continued speaking in a tone that seemed to be subtly flirting.
“Why, isn’t this a good opportunity? At times like this, don’t pretend to be noble and try to be a little faithful to your desires.”
“!… that’s… oh no. No matter how much, I can’t interfere with his work because of my greed…”
A-Re, who is quite stunned by Kwon-soon’s words, hesitates, not being able to put them into practice.
Regarding this, Kwon Soon came to the conclusion that she had to say something for this frustrated older sister.
“Hello Aressi?”
“..n.. yes?”
“Take action when you have time to worry about nothing. If I have to, can I just leave?”
“Kuh..”
The words of Kwon Soon who speaks with a lot of sincerity.
Eventually, Are went to the kitchen and started brewing coffee.
“Anyway, that sister, while usually being bold, becomes seriously timid at times like this. Isn’t 3 years enough to just watch?”
