The Cold Blooded Hunter: Seeker of Peace
104. Terms
"By the way, I turned down an offer from Frans about promoting me to Hunter rank S..." Lein said, and his words surprised me, "For now..."
"Eh?"
"Sir Frans said he would promote me as Hunter rank S if I managed to lead City 6 into a city that looks like the city that was before it was destroyed" Lein added, "Well, I turned it down because I didn't want to be a Hunter rank S who lost to a kid who wasn't even a Hunter."
Self-esteem issues, huh? It is only natural for me, no one wants to reach a higher stage if he is unable to forget the failures he has experienced, maybe Lein as well.
"I will train again, continue to train until I become stronger than I am now, until I can compensate for one or two Hunter rank S and receive recognition from you."
And I was even more surprised to hear it. After he rejected the offer of promotion to Hunter rank S, now he wants to receive a confession from me? What the fuck does that mean?
"Why do you want to get a confession from me?" maybe, I slowly started to accept Lein, so I started to relax while talking to her.
"Many have defeated me, and I have defeated them, except for six. First my Star grandfather who is my teacher, Joko Taru who both trained with Star grandfather, Frans, Anton, Antha, and lastly you" replied Lein, "Two are dead, both are dead, there's four of you left I haven't beaten."
"By the way, what are the requirements for a rank A Hunter to be promoted to rank S Hunter? Is rank S really that special until it needs special requirements?" asked Andhika who was sitting in the back.
"There are requirements that must be met if you want to be promoted to Hunter rank S, SS rank, and SSS rank, because these three ranks are ratings that cannot be held by Hunter carelessly." said Lein, "Rank A, rank B, rank C, rank D, and rank E do not require special requirements, only need recognition then a Hunter can rise in these five ranks."
I understand that, the three highest ranks should not be held by a Hunter carelessly, which is why the number of Hunters who have these three ranks is quite a bit in the world.
"A Hunter rank A can be promoted to Hunter rank S if he completes a certain mission that is considered dangerous in a short time, recognized by the people for his actions, able to protect many people, can protect many people, and being able to compensate for one Hunter rank S was later recognized by Hunter rank S's."
"A rank S Hunter could be promoted to SS rank Hunter if it managed to defeat one or more rank S Monsters alone, had great lead ability, understood various battle strategies, and, having a lot of experience in battle, being able to protect many people alone or with others, being recognized by people and considered worthy of that rank, and lastly being able to compensate for one SS rank Hunter."
Yes, the last point I think is another reason why my grandfather was promoted to SS rank Hunter in addition to his success in eliminating the SS rank Monster that had appeared in the Hawaiian islands.
"If it's an SSS rank, it's a very rare rank, even a Hunter who's had fewer than five people to date..."
There were two shadows of SSS rank Hunter appearing in my mind, first was Tang Liao's shadow brandishing both of his swords towards my neck and my grandfather's, and second is Tom Cage who went berserk with his iron gloves that appeared on television five years ago, when the Icelandic Raid happened.
"Tang Liao and Tom Cage, they are both Hunters who have SSS rank in their Hunter license card.." I replied, "So?"
Lein nodded, "Yes, they are both Hunters who have reached SSS rank in Hunter world history."
"I'll never forget Tom Cage's rampage when he appeared on television five years ago..." Rei said, and when I glanced back at him, he curled up while hugging both of his legs, "His strength is insane, he even dared to go into the big snake's mouth without talking about it with the other SS rank Hunters, as if he were fighting alone..."
I can understand Rei's fear, it doesn't make sense for a human to venture into the mouth of a giant snake without any planning, or Tom Cage does have preparations in his head that he doesn't show the world.
"Rather than you discussing such a thing because you will experience a long journey and surely you will reach that rank someday, it's good that you know the conditions to join a Hunter organization..." Lein cleared his throat, "The world is protected by nine Hunter organizations, one of which is equivalent to the full military might of a country."
I know of nine, first StarSam based in New Washington, second IronBlast based in London, third BraveWarrior based in Beijing, fourth EasternDragon based in Tokyo, fifth RedWhite headquartered in Jakarta, and the fourth in Beijing, sixth EarthGuard is based in Sydney, seventh GodBless in Riyadh, eighth PeaceMaker in Cairo, and last FreedomLight in Moscow, and each has more power than the United States military which is touted as the strongest military in the world.
"Each of them is in a different hemisphere, but the conditions for joining them are the same as the others..."
"The requirement is a minimum of fourteen years old and a maximum of seventeen years old, can fight wearing weapons or only wearing iron gloves, dare to fight Monsters, and pass the entrance test given."
"A person can become a Hunter without going through that requirement if trained directly by the Hunter organization's trainer, and receive a given firearm, no need to buy or make it."
"I suggest that I join in this way." said Lein, "You're training under the guidance of Star's grandfather who is a former coach of the RedWhite organization, and if you show Star grandfather's Hunter license card and tell the truth, maybe they could consider recruiting you regardless of your age which is still under the main requirement."
"Is there another way?" andhika asked, "Rei is still not fourteen years old, so it's hard for him to join RedWhite..."
"In addition, there is another requirement that someone can become a Hunter if he succeeds in making an achievement before becoming a Hunter and if known by the chairman of the Hunter organization, the Hunter organization, then that person will be recruited by the Hunter organization."
"What achievements do I have, huh? Fight with a Hunter and end up battered?" Rei sighed, "Trained my father just not..."
"Then you have to pass the entrance test..." Lein stopped the car, "You want to get a leak of the test form?"
