In any story, the villain is the catalyst. The hero's not a person who will bend the rules or show the cracks in his armor. He's one-dimensional intentionally, but the villain is the person who owns up to what he is and stands by it.

New York City is one of the most prosperous cities in the world.

This bustling metropolis was like a huge light show carnival.

Buildings of different styles and light of different colors and sizes could be seen in every corner of the city .

On the surface, it looked luxurious and extravagant, but it was filled with Darkness beneath the luxury and prosperous city.

It is one of the most prosperous cities in the United States where the rich gathered.

It was also one of the cities with the highest crime rate in the United States.

However, the crime rate was decreasing year by year with the cooperation of the Hunters and the police.

in the remote corner of the City

in his shop Alex was sitting in a chair behind the counter

He got the memory of his predecessor he doesn't need to go through it after all the memories are his own the moment he transmigrat

His predecessor is Hunter but support type Hunter to be precise he was a blacksmith.

since he's father was a blacksmith before gates started to appear so he learned from his father the art and craft of the blacksmith.

his mother passed away when he was 12 years old in a car accident and his father died a year after the gates started to appear from Eternal Slumber.

Eternal Slumber is a sleeping disorder that first appeared when humanity was exposed to the existence of Magic Beasts. Those who come down with this disease are intolerant to mana and as a result, they typically begin to develop symptoms after being exposed to a human who radiates mana, namely a hunter, for an extended period of time.

Initially, the victim will begin to pass out against their will for much longer than normal, before fully succumbing to the disease's effects and falling into a coma.

On top of causing its victims to lose consciousness permanently, Eternal Slumber also quickly drains its victims of their life force.

As a result, unless they hooked up to life support devices powered by  essence stones, the disease will magically suck them dry and they will die. Unfortunately, these devices are not known for being cheap and as a result, many people have died from the disease as a result of their relatives not being able to afford a device.

Due to humanity's still-lacking knowledge on the practical applications of mana, there is no widely-available cure for Eternal Slumber.

The only known cure for the disease is the  Holy Water of Life (from what I remember only

sung jin woo has it)

and At that time he did not have the money , strength or knowledge to obtain the cure .

after the death of his father he invested all his time and strength in learning about mana and blacksmithing.

and thanks to his strong body and high affinity to mana The journey was smooth sailing.

He chose to be a blacksmith that specializes in magical weapons.

As a blacksmith he receives orders from hunters Most of the weapons he created are Tailor made so the weapons are created from the bodies of the Magic Beasts that the hunters themselves brought.

While he was thinking about his next move

the door of the store opened two people walked through the door at a glance you can tell they are the hunters

He recognized them as Mr.Jack and

Ms. Eleanor Customers who asked him to create a magical weapon from the corpses of Ice Bears B rank Magic Beast.

Mr Jack was a handsome Caucasian man His skin shone with a bright silver light

He specializes in Barrier Magic

On the other hand, Ms Eleanor was a beauty with an angel's face and a hot body

She was dressed in white and gold tights, she specialized in Summoning Magic.

Both are A rank Hunters

Alex stood up and said

"You can sit down until I get your order"

After he said that Alex opened the door that was behind him and entered

Jack and Eleanor said nothing and sat down in the chairs that were closest to them

After a few minutes Alex came back with two boxes in his hand both made of wood , he gave the boxes to both of them

after Jack and Eleanor received the boxes

both of them open them

He gave the small box to Jack and the big box to Eleanor

Jack box has two rings embossed with runes

One is a storage black ring with a crimson line going in the middle of the ring

and the other is a brilliant blue ring with flecks of white across the surface to help him with mana preservation and storage

After they both got the boxes they paid and left .

as Alex was about to return to what he was doing the system sent him a notification
