SSS-Class Summoner - Chapter 11
Il-hyun arrived at the house, and then reversed his face and clothes that had been transformed earlier.
When his face had gone back to its original, he went straight to the bathroom.
After the battle with the monsters, the overturned dirt and bloodstains were not acceptable.
And after taking off the messy clothes, he turned on the shower and poured warm water over his body.
After a pleasant wash, Il-hyun took out the items he had obtained.
Eight ether cores were smaller than the usual one.
He grabbed the core with one hand and absorbed it one by one.
“Definitely, the output is a bit weak… It tastes boring.”
Il-hyun had tasted bad.
Just as a person cannot live on one, the core of the E-rank monster that was absorbed by predation was also bitten.
But it wasn’t too hard right now.
D-rank monsters are on a different dimension from E or F-ranks.
It was the starting point of the monster rank, classified as the Ace Monster.
D-rank gates did not pour dozens of D-rank monsters.
If so, mankind would have perished.
If it was a D-rank gate, it was a concept in which a base monster appeared in dozens to hundreds of E-ranks, and one or two ace monsters appeared in a D-rank.
When playing as a game, if the base monster was a nasty monster, the ace monster could be considered as a semi-boss.
Of course, there was no pattern of ace monsters at all for the inclination of the gate, and the pattern changed, for instance, the base monster had a relatively high rank, but in the normal case.
So, of course, the difference between the level of D and E rank monsters, which is the standard for distinguishing between ace and base, was remarkable.
There was no need to take that risk while hiding the instincts of scavenging.
After he finished living in scavenging, he wasn’t too greedy.
Il-hyun collected the core pieces that were broken and scattered on the floor and put them in a plastic bag.
He threw it in the corner of the veranda, which already had several of the same envelopes.
It was impossible to separate and collect the core pieces that piled up while absorbing them, and it was impossible to transform them to the opposite sex.
That said, he couldn’t throw it away anywhere, so he was privately troubled.
“You must stop doing this.”
Il-hyun sat on his sofa, his back pressed against the sofa’s rest, he murmured without help.
Hiding around the congestion consumed more heart than he thought.
He had many things to think about, and when he used the power. He became hesitant for a while.
He became cautious about even the smallest things he usually did without thinking.
“But there is not much left now.”
Il-hyun clenched one of his fists.
He felt strong enough to be incomparable to the first.
If he absorbed the core a little bit more, he could have the power required to demand for a contract in the awakening company.
(For example, in a condition where a detailed performance grade was not disclosed and was treated as private.)
Lee Tae-in, a B rank awakener who was the current sign of Vals, has not revealed his ability grade to anyone.
Usually, since the awakening’s skill level was essential to the company’s promotion or job hunting, such requests were rarely accepted.
However, it was said that Itaein laid the point in terms of the contract from the beginning.
His request was eventually accepted, and that was possible because he was the main class Awakener.
And one of the most important conditions for Il-hyun.
Taking ownership of the ether core from the monster he hunted.
It was essential for his future growth.
Ether was nothing more than an awakening company’s profits, so he won’t be able to demand it all.
However, some stipulated that they wanted to the core instead of money.
“C rank chin… No, even if it’s just the top rank of D, if you put up the instinct I have, I’ll try to take it with my prospect turned over.”
Il-hyun did not know what grade he was exactly.
The level of awakening was not so simple as to be randomly measured anywhere.
But only three instincts.
Even if he hid the level of detailed instinct, having three instincts was huge merit.
Moreover, all three instincts were an entirely new type of intellect that had never been known.
It was a spec that could remain even after the eyes of companies turned around.
If he revealed that all three of them were SSS ranks, it would be annoying, and all governments and companies will take him with a free pass.
No, he was going to have to make a decision.
And he didn’t have to worry about that.
But the problem was that they weren’t the only ones interested.
Instead, an overly extraordinary talent could be the target of others.
A South American awakener, who received the expectations of everyone on the S-ranked instinct, died of a throat (this is incomplete) in her home when she was 19.
IRC, a criminal organization of awakened people, tried to recruit him, but when the story went wrong, he was killed and left without regret.
Unless they were members of the same group, they were awakened men who could be a threat to them, so it was something they had to recruit, remove, or do.
Also, a promising individual, with an A-ranked instinct, who was in Iran for ten years, was missing only for his dead body to be found drifting down the river.
Sometimes, there were no rumors about rats and birds dead, but rumors got out that they were assassinated and killed by other country’s enemies.
If he has a high level of awakening in Korea, he might think it’s relatively safe, but what about SSS ranks that have no history?
He didn’t even want to imagine what might happen.
Even if he concealed his head, it still hurt, but he didn’t want to live his life worrying about being assassinated.
At the age of 20, the prosecutor’s office had revealed all of his instincts. Still, at the time, the employee dismissed it as a simple machine error and made a record as a general without any ability.
At least, due to the prosecutor’s examination in the past, there was no chance to break the rank.
“You have to hide your intellect rating until you get strong enough.”
Il-hyun clearly awakened and was awakened late.
However, as long as he had an unrivaled predation ability, he didn’t have to worry about growth at all.
“It would be nice if you could enter a place like Aegis, not a strange company.”
Awakening companies also had bad companies, and there were quite a few places where they wanted to eat their own awakened.
Whether you’re playing pranks on contracts or eating ether at a much higher rate, there were places where the awakened alone could not properly get a job from the government.
In contrast, Aegis.
Together with the Korean government’s response team, it was the last goal of all awakened.
This place was home to over twenty A class awakened people who have no other country in the world, and are proud to be the best in the world.
Il-hyun was merely a child when he thought he would become an awakener and had dreamed of entering there.
“But, I’ll be starting right now.”
Aegis was where the best awakens gathered, not the prospects.
Il-hyun looked back at the house.
Inside the house, all sorts of miscellaneous things were piled up, making a mess.
There were large wood and chopped pieces, glasses, rubbers, etc.
It was necessary to get used to it because each time a different material was transformed, it felt different.
The more he used this ability, the faster he became proficient and the wider the application.
Il-hyun lightly lifted the water from the bowl on the table into the air.
The water that floated in a gravity-like state and formed the shape of a human figure.
The small size of the body and the dim neck, thin arms, and legs, infused the summoning ability there.
The moment his power was released, however, the water that had floated fell back into the bowl.
In the meantime, even though he was very good at summoning, there was no sign of success in summoning as easily as the number of human-shaped summons.
Il-hyun conjured it once more. Water droplets splattered all over the place again. He began to put them in a bowl.
Just then, he felt the vibration of his cell phone.
A reminder popped up in a chat room with three friends, including him.
He had agreed to see them this week.
After checking the contents, Il-hyun flipped her phone and put it on the side for a while.
Meanwhile, he had been insulted to read and cheat on two of his friends.
“I have to explain this.”
He became an awakener at this age, and he had three instincts, and he said he had tremendous potential.
It was a good repertoire to be treated like a crazy man.
Of course, he won’t say anything until he was done with scavenging, but it was something he would have to tell someday.
When he thought about that time, he felt somewhat embarrassed.
“Well?”
Il-hyun looked at the phone.
This time the app worked and a notification popped up on his phone.
It was an app that told him that a gate was being created in Seoul right now.
“D4 grade gate in Songpa… What day is it today?”
An emergency evacuation letter, enclosed in parentheses next to the notification, caught his eye.
An emergency evacuation order had been issued, meaning that the gate was about to be activated within 20 minutes.
In fact, not only today, it seemed that the amount of generated gates had increased these days significantly.
The gate with a tight activation time had particularly increased noticeably.
“The next cycle has not come yet. Are you starting to see signs already?”
Il-hyun finally took care of that and sat up on the sofa he was sitting on.
Even though it was a D-rank gate, the ace monsters were handled by the awakened people in charge of the scene, so it was relevant for him.
It was a waste to have washed at all, but it felt better than never.
Soon after, he packed his clothes and climbed to the roof of the tallest building around.
Il-hyun, stared at the streets around the dark, attracted, and transformed the air overflowing from all directions.
Deforming the air that was difficult to catch was much more difficult than other objects, but it was possible enough in today’s hyeon-hyeon.
So dimly, the bird took shape using the summon ability.
A giant hawk appeared capable of carrying one person freely.
The translucent figure was not noticeable, even close to the eye.
Il-hyun changed the color of clothes to be invisible to the people, then climbed on the back of the hawk and soared into the sky.
He didn’t use this method other times, but this time the distance was quite far, so he couldn’t help it.
He flew as high as possible away from the human eyes.
After flying so high, Il-hyun transformed the hawk into black so that it could merge with the night sky.
So that if someone saw it, it would look like an ordinary bird.
Only feathers and beaks, eyes, and dignified masses all began to appear clearly.
The hawk quickly traversed the sky in Seoul, and the cold night air flung through Il-hyun’s face.
The night view of Seoul was visible at a glance, tall buildings, and countless lights.
It was a superb view for anyone to see and feel good whenever they saw it.
However, there was one point he had missed.
-Upgraded the gate grade. Current prediction rank B3. The company in charge changed from Raon to Aegis. Team A is being dispatched.
A new bond was approaching him.
