Max Level After 5000 Years
Brother's trust

The blood of the monsters scattered over the land of the B rank Dungeon, the perpetrator who killed the monster boss was silent staring at the corpse of the monster in front of him.

He moved his sword to the side, put away the blood of the monster that was fouling his sword then turned to look at the limped teenage boy with a body full of wounds.

"Lee Yoo-han's. You don't deserve the title of S rank yet, try again and later we can re-test your strength"

He said a short word. Lee Yoo-Han bites his lower lip, but soon he believes he can defeat the monster but the monster's final attack overwhelms him until the guild leader who oversees his test intervenes to help.

"I can do it! Me!—"

"Lee Yoo-Han's! You almost died!"

Yoo-Han freezes as Gauri yells at him. True, if only Gauri obeyed Yoo-Han's stubborn will, he might have died at the hands of the boss of the bear-shaped monster, but fortunately Gauri helped at the right time.

Yoo-Han can't deny it. He hates to see his weak self and is helped by Gauri again, he wants to rise to S rank in hopes of giving big help to Gulid and Gauri.

But if it's like this he's not helping at all.

His face lowered, Yoo-Han regrets his decision to become a Hunter rank S with his weak abilities.

"I'm sorry"

That was all he could say to Gauri. The woman let out a long sigh, she approached Yoo-Han, kept her sword in a sub-space bag then patted Yoo-Han's head briefly.

"If you can't finish the test now then you can't finish the next test either. We can try it again later, there's still a lot you can learn so don't get discouraged okay?"

Yoo-Han is a whiny teenager. He always hid his true nature because he was Hunter, someone who had to protect the crowd shouldn't cry over failure.

But this time he could not hold it anymore. Yoo-Han cries while lowering his head, not trying to stare at the face of Gauri who is either disappointed or not at him.

Failure due to his own beliefs, Yoo-Han feels ashamed of Gauri who is in front of him.

"I will try again, next time for sure, I can definitely become the first S rank Hunter in your guild!"

Although Gulid Orbit is the second strongest guild, but there only has one Hunter rank S that is Gauri itself. Most are Hunter rank C through A, probably because of that Yoo-Han wants to become the first Hunter rank S in the Orbit guild.

Gauri smiled knot. It was like having a sister. Yoo-Han is his precious subordinate, Gauri is convinced that one day he will definitely be able to reach the peak of his own strength and achieve what he dreams of.

"Good, fine. I'll be looking forward to it. Now we get out of the dungeon and treat your wounds first."

Yoo-Han nodded in understanding. After that they also came out of the cave where the boss monster was and went to another supervisor who monitored in a safe place.

"Hunter Lee Yoo-Han failed the rank-up test. You can try again later, for now you have to focus on recovering your body"

Said Hunter in charge of overseeing the test. Yoo-Han only nods briefly, thanking the Hunter and then the Hunter leaves because the task there is done.

Gauri walks into Yoo-Han's nursery, her disappointed look clear as Gauri approaches. Yoo-Han is not even aware of Gauri's presence there, she is too dissolved in her grief for failing the rank-up test.

"I told you we could try again later, right? Don't be so disappointed"

Gauri hits Yoo-Han's shoulder slowly. The teenager laughed grimly, he was caught being upset again.

"I'm sorry."

Gauri gave a brief snort. Lying if he doesn't expect Yoo-Han to succeed, his expectations are very high on the boy but apparently he still can't reach it now.

'It's okay, there's still another chance'

But since Yoo-Han failed so he has to bury back his hopes.

"I'm going back to the apartment now. There will be someone from Gulid helping you later,"

Gauri. He came there just to stay. Her job is done, and she misses her brother at home.

Yoo-Han who understands Gauri wants to meet with Ilya immediately nodded.

"What about my duty of guarding master Ilya?"

He asked Gauri before the woman left. The wound from the fight was painful and it might take a long time to heal, Yoo-Han so thought about his new job as Ilya's bodyguard.

"I've given that position to Remy. For now you just focus on your healing, you can't go back to serving as a Hunter before you make a full recovery?"

"I get. Thanks for your attention"

Yoo-Han is lucky to have a boss like Gauri. Although she has disappointed him but Gauri still takes good care of Yoo-Han, she becomes even more admiring.

"I'll go first."

Gauri went straight from there. Outside of her receiving a call from someone, her subordinate Hunter who was in charge of watching Ilya secretly—Gauri placed several Hunters around Ilya for fear that her brother was having problems when she was not around.

"How's my brother doing?"

He asked with a flat face. His hand opened the car door, he was preparing to go home to the apartment now.

"Mr Ilya is fine. He used his credit card to shop a few days ago, but he disappeared from his previous apartment"

Gauri cringing. His feelings were immediately bad as soon as he heard the report.

"Why did you lose him? Was he hurt or something?"

The voice across there replied rather fearfully. When discussing about Ilya's safety, their guild leader became more sensitive than usual.

"I'm sorry we. He came home after a little afternoon, we found him in the city center. Some item traders had wanted to deceive him because his face looked confused, we—"

"Take care of the merchant who wants to cheat Ilya. I'll be back now, you guys keep my sister Ilya from afar. Don't let those dirty people hurt him"

The voice across there answered nervously. Gauri sounded really creepy as she spoke earlier.

"B—well!"

The call ended with Gauri. He let out a long sigh while staring at the road he was walking through.

'How can Ilya's brother be missing from the supervision of Hunter rank B?'

Ilya was just the same F rank Hunter as the common folk. He should have been easy to keep an eye on, but he had instead disappeared from the tutelage of the Hunters stronger than him.

Hows it? Is Ilya hiding something from Gauri? He promised to tell her anything.

As a younger sister who believed in him, Gauri felt disappointed that Ilya was actually hiding something.

He would ask later, for now he wanted to buy something that would be given to Ilya then return home to his apartment.

'I'm home, brother'
