Being one of the few hunters at the top, the S-ranked Marksman Hunter "Ace" had it all. A strong sense of combat, wealth, fame, and a bright future ahead of him. Yet, despite it all, he felt nothing at all to his feats. He was just content with his life, not wanting anything else.

Having risen to unimaginable heights through battling many gates over the years, his glory was renowned throughout the world and was said to be one of the few hunters that would pave the path to a brighter future for their generation.

Yet, that was all thrown out of the window.

Almost a decade after The Great Awakening which shook the entirety of Terra, the Hunter "Ace" stood before many people as he announced something that no one could've ever imagined.

"Today, I will be announcing my retirement."

Yes. That day marked the end of one Hunter's journey.

Though, it was not out of his own free will.

[ Hunter "Jace"—class change will now begin. ]

It was all because of a fateful notification he had received.

[ You are now classified as a Synergist. ]

Levelling by the Sidelines

As the rain fell onto the grassy fields of Westchester Park, a black-haired man could be seen tiredly sitting down on the corpse of the wolf beast. To the side of him was the unconscious body of Jane.

"Sigh... When are they coming?" Ray annoyedly mumbled to himself, listlessly scrolling through his phone. "Are they lost or something?"

From when Jace had left to find Malory until now, the tired man had been idling around, waiting for the Hunter's Association to come. However, even after some time, there were still no signs of their arrival.

"I feel like I should just leave... Doesn't seem worth it to wait in this weather..." Following his line of thought, the sounds of footsteps could be heard echoing through the area. "Hmm?"

Alerted by the noise, his attention turned towards the front of him. At that second, he saw the sight of a few hunter associates approaching him.
