Transcension Academy - Chapter 1

C1: Hunter Academy

It was about 100 years ago that the concept of dungeons appeared on Earth.

Suddenly, the sky split and dungeons appeared along with monsters the world has never seen before. At the same time, people awakened and beings called awakeners appeared.

When the dungeon first appeared, it seemed like the world would be broken and the countries would collapse.

Many people died and thought the world would finally end in the process. However, the world gradually began to stabilize as the Awakeners joined forces and fought.

With the new civilization of monsters and mana taking root, the Earth has entered another age.

The Age of the Great Hunters.

Characters that were only seen in cartoons and movies appeared in reality.

People went crazy for their heroic appearance but about 50 years ago as the mechanism of awakening was revealed, even dogs and cows could become awakeners.

To be exact, people can become an awakened with money in the new era.

A job that can only be obtained with great talent and luck that consisted of catching monsters, making equipment with various materials obtained from monsters and training yourself.

Even though it was a high-risk job with a high mortality rate because of the big money and honor that could be obtained, there were countless people who wanted to become hunters.

In the past, it was possible to become a hunter only by awakening, but now there are so many awakening people that it was necessary to pass a government-organized test to become a professional hunter.

Naturally, there were groups that prepared and supervised Hunter tests and further taught physical training and hunting-related information.

Hunter Academy.

Most of the academy instructors were retired hunters so they had experienced firsthand how to deal with monsters and knew how to train basic physical strength. They also taught students through real combat.

As actual hunters taught them their experiences the gap between the unlearned and the learned widened once again. Naturally, people who wanted to be hunters began to flock to the academy.

[Congratulations! Graduated Jung Soo-Ah from Ale Academy for becoming an A-level hunter!]

[Gaon Academy recruits former S-class hunter Kim Seok-hyun as an instructor!]

[The management of Hunter Mill worked this time as well. The highest number of Hunter exam passers this year!]

National and private Hunter Academies sprang up in a flurry, now forming a huge industry like civil service academies.

To this day, few of the active hunters were not from the Academy.

To be a hunter, you have to go to an academy so I have to go to Hunter Academy.

“Which class should I take this time…?”

The Hunter Academy I went to was a little special.
