Translator’s Ramblings:
Hey folks, I am back! Sorry for the unexpectedly long absence. The worst part wasn’t moving out but setting internet up once again.
Super bad and messy customer service, like the last guy who called rescheduling the installing procedure (the third time changing dates or so) did it when my internet was already back up and he seriously argued back that it shouldn’t have been possible. I almost expected him to bring it down again just for lolz.
On another note, special thanks for our newest Patron Kiki! Thanks for the support. I had a little trouble sitting down and getting in translator mood once again and this helped keep my lazy and undisciplined self (mostly) in check.

Suspicious Dance Party
(1)“Can’t we use it for a different purpose…?”
“The OD-3 solution is for Awaken exclusive use only, and the Awakens at Hero Management are just Ms. Gina alone.”
Choi Gina had to make use of that injection’s solution completely. Making her wonder whether she wouldn’t really die if she were to be injected with all that many.
“And this is an Aether based drug after all. When injected with you will absorb Aether as result, your powers’ level rising as whole too whenever you do so — it would be killing two birds with one stone.”
“Uuu… T-That is too much…”
Kang-Joon, whether he could understand Gina’s inner turmoil, was smiling from ear to ear. While Jiwon and Aran, who had finished their individual trainings and returned back up, watched the beaming Choi Kang-Joon and Gina on the verge of tears while laying face down on the sofa, puzzled.
“Haa, today too was a very productive day.”
Choi Kang-Joon smiled, speaking like that. Seasoned people with Hunter experience each had an eccentric side, and Choi Kang-Joon was not an exception.
After that the schedule changed a little. Choi Gina ended now receiving the Half-Trance training using the OD-3 solution at night. And despite having no choice but falling in a half-corpse state every time going through it, Kang-Joon said if they did this training sparingly, on contrary, there would be no effects, being better to get down with it swiftly.
As such, naturally there were many times where Choi Gina and Kang-Joon were the only two present at night. Although Choi Gina couldn’t conceal her anxiety as it became night, chewing her fingernails and more, she did not refuse the procedure in the end. And the drug training’s effects did truly show themselves.
Choi Gina became able to — amidst battle — slow the enemy’s movements to a degree noticeable to the naked eye. Although incapable of killing or defeating the enemy, it was sufficient to make each creature sluggish under its imposing pressure. And with only that much Choi Gina already became sufficient help.
‘Is she a genius?’
Kang-Joon remembered even Chloe couldn’t grasp the Half-Trance at this speed. And even without that, Choi Gina was someone who mowed monsters down while cosplaying as a magical girl having no idea what Avatar even was. Her status as a genius already established.
Now they were working hard in order to Clear a C Rank Dungeon Hard Mode Boss. They had already become able to Clear a typical monster wave — with some difficulty.
This time their levels weren’t appropriate, and at the Hard Mode they couldn’t help facing complete annihilation putting up a desperate struggle.
The summoned monster was a giant spider that, with its agile movements and deadly poison, was a monster complicated to deal with in many ways. Choi Gina trembled at the start, saying there wasn’t absolutely any chance she could do it. Disliking insects from the outset, it was fortunate she didn’t pa.s.s out upon the giant insect sight.
And, at the seventh wipe-out,
“I can’t think of anything at all…”
Once bitten by its attacks a couple times one would enter a poisoned state, being eliminated directly. In addition, because of it increased intelligence, it attacked Choi Gina who was standing at the rear first. Seo Aran dealt with the enemy’s attacks, and — despite fighting back and evading at times — was eliminated being hit by its giant scythe-like legs sweeps and chops, and continuous biting attacks, while Jiwon didn’t need to be said. Aran spoke, looking at Kang-Joon fixedly.
“Show us a demonstration once.”
“Huh? Demonstration?”
“Yes.”
Despite Aran firm expression there were fresh signs of a strong yearn .
“It is not something I can’t do, but… Even if you saw what I do there will be little gain. I don’t think it would be able to give any helping tips in particular, and…”
“Show it.”
Aran cut it off clearly, speaking like that. Kang-Joon and Aran interlocking gazes for a moment. The two, Jiwon and Gina, tilted their heads wondering why it had suddenly came to that, but were unaware of what meaning that could possibly have. Until Kang-Joon nodded his head.
“Well, sure.”
Even though he didn’t know what they could learn Kang-Joon wore the practice equipment, entering the main room. Whether Seo Aran knew the operation method, her voice heard from the control room soon afterwards.
[I will summon it then.]
“Alright.”
[Hey Aran, just a moment.]
[Difficulty Level Change]
[Hardcore]
[Even being hit by a single attack will destroy the Armour Coat]
[Damage can not be inflicted without attacking weak points.]
[Enemy’s Health increased by 500%]
[Enemy’s Movement is two times faster.]
“M-Ms. Gina?”
[Hang in there Oppa!]
Choi Gina cried out with joy. A single action and the difficulty level was raised to the highest available. Mischief was probably only part of it, a feeling of revenge for all of Kang-Joon’s hara.s.sment present.
‘Was I too severe?’
If Choi Gina, who was usually kind, was like that it meant they hadn’t built up anything.
[Hardcore Mode]
[C Rank Boss]
[Giant Black Widow]
A huge black spider appeared,
-ktatatata!
And with a sound pounced headed to Kang-Joon with a tremendously outrageous speed.
“This really seems real…”
Seeing the spider’s charge Kang-Joon broke out in genuine cold sweat. However, separated from that, Kang-Joon slipped, diving under the incoming spider’s stomach, striking at the spider’s underbelly and escaping.
[Weakpoint attack!]
[50 damage inflicted.]
All things aside, Kang-Joon was a stubborn person with a compet.i.tive personality.
