Episode 49
Long, tangled hair.
Dark circles around the eyes.
Grinning – Pointy teeth exposed in a grin.
Cheat took off his helmet and took a mug shot with restraints on both arms. Of course, that mug shot went all over the world.
[Rebellion member imprisoned!]
[Gaon’s student catches the villain!]
[Cheat’s identity is a Chinese hacker?]
[Hannah’s special coverage! Rebellion member’s first interview!]
[Failed to investigate. Keep your mouth shut until the end…]
Jin Byeong-chul, the principal of Gaon, was laughing his mouth open as he read an article about Shin Yoo-seong’s performance.
“Haha! Instructor Lin Shao! Look at this! Aren’t people’s reactions very hot? How great is our Yooseong’s performance. Praise for Gaon…”
It was natural.
A small group of elite villains that even active hunters are afraid of. Rebellion. A member of such a group was arrested by Shin Yoo-seong, a freshman in Gaon. It was an unprecedented historical event.
“I am still concerned. if! Maybe the villains didn’t have a grudge against Yooseong… Umm.”
“Hot hot! Aren’t hunters like that? How will Hunter become famous and strong without putting himself in danger?”
“Certainly that is so.”
Lin Shao nodded and pointed to Adela’s knight.
“It feels like Adela’s performance in attacking the dungeon as an out-of-school activity is being buried by Yooseong.”
“It’s a good thing. This is an embarrassing story out there. I’m saying this because I’m you…”
Jin Byeong-cheol, the principal, looked alternately at the pictures of Adela and Shin Yoo-seong engraved on the paper of the national contest.
“Honestly, shouldn’t Yooseong go out instead of Adela? Rather than an international student from Italy… I’m talking about whether it would be better for a student from Korea to be the representative.”
No matter how much Adela competed as a representative of Korea, the representative of any country often insisted on students from their own country.
“Because the association is conservative in that respect.”
In the end, Lin Xiao couldn’t help but nod his head at Jin Byeong-cheol’s story. Jin Byeong-cheol looked at the scenery beyond the glass with a face that he liked.
“okay. yes.”
large lot. beautiful scenery.
Jin Byeong-chul as a principal always pursued the principle of competence, and Gaon was always Korea’s No. 1.
Jin Byeong-cheol said while fiddling with his beard.
“So that’s what I mean. What do you think? Yoosung and Adela. Who do you predict will win?”
At Jin Byeong-cheol’s question, Lin Shao thought deeply. Shin Yooseong is definitely strong. Even the instructor himself hadn’t figured out his limits yet.
However, Adela’s strength was already out of the question during the first year. Not to mention Korea, the homeland of hunters, as well as all of China, I have never seen such a tremendous trait as Adela.
‘At least the similar level is Ryujin, who is a disciple of Swordsman…’
When Shin Yooseong had just arrived, Jin Byeong-cheol had asked a similar question. The question is ‘Which is stronger, Shin Yoo-sung and Ryu Jin?’ was
‘At that time… I answered Ryujin without even thinking about it.’
Lin Shao’s narrow eyes flashed.
Is it Adaline or Shin Yuseong? Lin Xiao is in deep trouble. Now, Lin Shao’s thoughts were different from before.
“I think…”
Lin Xiao opened her mouth after thinking about it.

Pride of China. Skyscraper Academy.
The top of a huge 100-story building. Ryujin looked at her pocket and narrowed her brows for a moment.
[Rebellion! Arrested by a student!]
A story that is hard to believe.
Rebellion was rapidly gaining notoriety among hardline villain groups that carried out terrorism.
‘That… Rebellion alone?’
Cheat was even a famous villain who was wanted in China for hacking various information. Ryujin slowly looked down and checked the student’s name.
“…Shin Yuseong.”
familiar tone.
Ryu Jin, who had a strong first impression, recalled Shin Yoo-seong’s name. Ryujin was never vigilant that Shin Yooseong was a hunter with F-class characteristics.
Shin Yuseong’s teacher is Kwon Wang.
He was one of the few rivals of Ryujin’s teacher, Swordsman.
‘If that kind of skill is enough for such a Kwon King to have received as a disciple…’
Ryu Jin predicted that even if Shin Yuseong’s characteristic is F, he has the talent to captivate the Kwon King. As evidence of that, Yoosung Shin has been on a winning streak since he started his activities.
‘There is definitely something.’
Ryujin closed her eyes.
Due to the height of the skyscraper, a strong gust of wind grazed. A floating feeling that makes you feel as if you are floating in the air.
Liu Jin gave everything to please the Chinese Hunter Association. Ryu Jin made his name shine in China with his skills, and China provided Ryu Jin with what he needed in return.
circular stone.
An item of such high value that one stone can buy several buildings. Liu Jin’s younger sister, Liu Ming, needed a circular stone as a treatment for an incurable disease.
Even the circular stone has a lifespan of one year.
If it were not for the state-level support provided by China, it would be next to impossible for Ryu Jin, who is still only a student, to pay for Liu Ming’s medical expenses.
Ryu Jin felt a sense of floating and thought of his younger sister, Liu Ming.
Liu Ming, who always smiled brightly, said this one day.
[When I get better, I want to make friends. That too… a lot!]
When Ryujin thought of Ryuming, a bitterness appeared on her expressionless face.
‘It must have been lonely.’
It was natural. Because there were no peers of Liu Ming’s age in the gray hospital.
Ryujin’s feelings at that time were inexplicable. Still, Ryujin smiled kindly at Liuming. Then, he gently stroked Liu Ming’s head and replied,
[…okay. It will definitely happen.]
Ryujin thought of making Ryuming’s simple dream come true somehow.
From a very young age.
Liu Ming’s wish.
Because it was Ryujin’s wish.
It was natural.
Whoa!
Ryujin opened her eyes amidst a gust of wind blowing her hair. A silver sword in Ryujin’s hand as fragments of the hologram fly around.
Booung!
Ryujin stepped forward and swung her sword without hesitation.
A quiet world where even the gusts of wind have stopped.
The clouds parted along Ryujin’s sword path. This is the power of being #1 in Skyscraper Academy. Ryujin, who split the sky, frowned as he inserted his sword.
‘…It’s become dull.’
Ryujin was not yet satisfied with such great skills. Korea, of course. In order not to lose to any representative of the country, Ryujin had to train continuously. That was Ryujin’s way.

Luxurious seven number dormitory.
Shin Yooseong, sitting on the sofa, was staring blankly at the balance written in his pocket.
[Deposit amount: 20000000]
[Total deposit balance: 23673000]
20 million won obtained after processing the gate.
It was quite a lot of money for active hunters, but it was even more felt by Shin Yoo-seong, a student.
‘Even if I buy 16,000 banana milk for 1,200 won… I still have money left.’
Of course, he would not like banana milk that much, but to Shin Yoo-seong, who had never spent money properly, the value of money was mostly proportional to food.
Even more money when you get it.
Shin Yoo-seong admired Kim Eun-ah’s spending once again.
‘Such a lot of money… a small amount of money.’
It wasn’t necessary right away, but Shin Yoo-seong had another place to spend the money.
‘To prepare the party supplies, I’ll have to collect them one by one from now on.’
Shin Yoo-seong had no intention of joining other clubs or other people’s parties. All Shin Yoo-seong wanted was his own party and poor room.
However, it was close to impossible for a freshman to have a personal bankruptcy.
The SP required to be assigned to a new department was a whopping 3000. It was a far-off figure for a first year student.
So, I usually gather members or party members to share SP and share the right to insolvency. Shin Yooseong had no such intention.
In order to become the party leader and enforce his plan, he needed to pay all 3000 SP alone.
It was an impossible story for an ordinary freshman, but Shin Yoo-seong was different.
I’ve already collected more than half of my SP.
It was thanks to Shin Yoo-seong’s performance, but in fact, it was also thanks to the favoritism of Jin Byeong-cheol, the principal.
‘I’ve already collected close to half. Is it easier to collect SP than I thought?’
Shin Yooseong smiled happily without knowing that fact. It was the same with raising money. I couldn’t let go of the insolvency I had earned.
It took a lot of money to buy fixtures and furniture needed for the academy activities.
‘Although the club is relatively supportive. …because the party has to make up for it personally through out-of-town activities.’
Gaon is only meritocracy. Only those who conquered it with their own skills could rise high. But Shin Yuseong was not new. Shin Yoo-seong, who survived 12 years in Mt. Musin, was so used to winning.
‘But I have to rest tomorrow.’
Tomorrow is finally the weekend.
Shin Yoo-seong, who was more active than anyone else, deserved it. Let’s lie down on the bed, yawning. The pocket by my bedside vibrated.
Gying!
[Amy♥: Party leader! I’m done filming too! Hugged!? Unbelievable! Well, tomorrow is the weekend!!!ヽ(๑╹▽╹๑)ノ]
Amy’s message in the pocket.
When I read the contents, Shin Yoo-seong was automatically reminded of Amy’s mischievous expression.
Gying!
Shin Yuseong was about to write a reply when another message came.
[Amy♥: To celebrate the historic event of arresting the villain! How about a picnic together!? (ღゝ◡╹)ノ ♡]
Shin Yoo-seong, who was in trouble for a while, smiled. The answer has already been decided.
[Shin Yuseong: Yes.]
After all, it was more fun to share a break with everyone than alone.
