Chapter 7

"Han Yoojin-nim is an F-rank Awakened person and meets the Hunter qualification requirements."

Hunter Association (1) is the seventh chapter of The S-Ranks That I Raised novel.

Han Yoojin goes to the Hunter Association and registers as an Awakened person.

Summary
Yoojin prepares to go meet Bak Yerim by first registering as Awakened and buying a contract. As he and Kim Sunghan head to the Hunter Association, he thinks over its history. They enter the Awakened people registration waiting room to find a decent crowd. Yoojin gets a waiting number ticket and takes a seat. The people around him notice Kim Sunghan's looming presence and wonder why he's escorting Yoojin, assuming he must be a new high-rank Hunter. Kim Sunghan declines Yoojin's requests to sit down and make himself less noticeable, so Yoojin distracts himself by checking the people around him using Promising Sprout. He notes that his mana is quite low, and starts thinking about how to raise his stats so he can use his skills effectively.

As he mulls over this idea, he's called in to register. Yoojin writes down his stats and skills, once again downplaying his abilities and omitting his titles altogether. The rumors spreading around him reach the ears of the Association staff, and a department head comes to check on him, assuming that he's a high-ranker. When he realizes that Yoojin is a run-of-the-mill F-rank, his attitude (as well as the attitudes of those around Yoojin) change drastically for the worse. Frustrated, Yoojin goes and gets his stats and skills measured and confirmed; soon after, he gets his Hunter license, and manages to slip Kim Sunghan's guard to go to the Hunter Mall. Once inside, he checks how much money Yoohyun gave him, and is shocked beyond belief when he learns he's in possession of one billion won.
