Kim Hana

"Kim Hana!!! When will you pay the rent? You're three months due!! Either you pack your things up or pay me!"

"L-Landlord, I-I have to pay my Mom's bills."

"Hah? Do I look like I fucking care! I'm losing money because of you! Get out!"

"...P-Please I will pay you okay. I passed the Hunter test. The guild will recruit me."

"...Hmph! How many times have I heard that."

"It's true, I passed. So, please give me one last chance "

"...Tsk! If not for your mother, I would have- tsk! Last chance, if you don't pay, I better not see your face again."

"Y-Yes!"

Kim Hana slumped on the floor as she felt the boulder on her shoulder became even heavier. She clenched her fist tightly.

"What should I do... No Guilds have contacted me since then."

After a week had passed. Kim Hana was elated she passed the test. The Hunter Associates told her to wait for a call. But there was no contact at all.

She opens her terminal and looks for someone.

[Contact

-Kim Yo-han-]

This person. He was cruel and she didn't like him. He told her he would help her but he was very harsh towards her.

'No matter how much effort you make. Even if you worked 10 times or 100 times more than the others. You can't achieve the top. I want people like you. If you want to work with me, I will help you achieve the greatest heights.'

Kim Hana recalled the time he and her had a short conversation.

'What did he mean by that? Do you think I will be swayed by those words? No, I will not listen to your nonsense. I swear there will be a guild that will take me in!'

*Beep*

'See!'

Kim Hana excitedly opens her terminal. A smile was brought up on her face. She scoffed at the image of Kim Yo-han.

She packs her things and dresses up nicely.

...

Kim Hana's apartment.

"What the hell! What do they mean by that!" Kim Hana throws her bag on the sofa. Her expression was devastated.

...

Earlier,

The Guild where Kim Hana has gotten her recruitment letter.

"Next. Kim Hana."

"Y-Yes!"

Kim Hana waited in the waiting room. Other recruits were waiting just like her. Her heart was beating faster. She was excited.

'From now on, I'll become a certified hunter!'

Why does Kim Hana want to be a Hunter so much?

Kim Hana's mother is in the hospital. She has to pay the hospital a very large sum of money. Also, her mother needed a surgery. It doesn't end that, Her mother is so unlucky she was diagnosed with a Magic illness, and she is now lying down on the bed, never opening her eyes.

Kim Hana's life was so miserable. She was just a teenager, where was she going to need money to pay for those?

She is the only child. Her relatives did not show themselves.

How will she pay the bill?

To save her mother's life, she sold their house. But it was not enough. They have treated the magic illness. The only way to cure it is to buy or find the magic elixir.

But this Elixer is so rare and has a high demand. One Elixer cost so much, that it made Kim Hana despair. Where could she get money like that?

Then as if the gods receive her plead. She was awakened! It was the joyous moment of her life. It's as if luck is by her side, with these newfound powers she received she will become stronger and have enough money to pay her mother's bills.

"You're Kim Hana?"

"I-I am!"

"According to the data, you're still minor and your potential is not that high. But your tenacity is pretty great. But, we can take you in."

"Really?"

Kim Hana's eyes lit up. Her excitement rushed to a new level of height.

'What's with this girl?' The interviewer looks at the data and sighs in regret. 'How unfortunate.'

...

Back to the present.

"What do you mean luggage carrier? I have a class you know. Why am I a luggage carrier? Furthermore, it's a 3-year contract, With a minimum wage..."

Do not think lowly of minimum wage with her rank, Kim Hana. It's better than working as normal people. Luggage carrier also risk their life.

But, Kim Hana did not want that kind of job. Although she will be able to live without problems and pay her bills. What about her mother?

That's why, Kim Hana did not accept the job. She asked the interviewer why she could not partake in raids. It's because they don't want to invest in those without potential.

There is a way to upgrade potential though, but for people like Kim Hana, it's expensive.

Skill orb and skill books. Only those with deep pockets can buy those. Or can be lucky if you are rewarded after clearing a dungeon.

Kim Hana lay on her bed with her arm over her eyes. The burden she was lifting became even heavier, at this rate it would crush her.

Slowly drifting from her tiredness...

...

....

"SSS-rank! Who is it?"

"Paradise? What is that?"

"Second phase? Is it another Cataclysm? Everyone arm yourselves, as can't let that happen again!!!"

"We need to stay calm. Read it carefully!"

"Immortality? Hahahaha, we can become immortals? This is great! The best! I can't wait!"

Every corner of the world was in chaos. The top guilds weren't calm either.

...

Kim Yo-han look at the skies with a big smile on his face.

"It's time."
