73 Strength?

He may be considered the weakest National Level Hunter, but even then he understood that that was only because of his age and not because of his power.

Steve was able to create things that could fight evenly with such creatures, he was fighting, treating them as nothing but prey.

How does he tell the public that this was a man who was truly beyond the National Level?

It may bring him joy, but there were twenty National Level hunters in this world and each of them had relative power and strength, they lived like gods on earth.

He could imagine the kind of chaos that would occur should he announce Steve's situation or provide the evidence he had that proved that.

S-ranks were already a pain to deal with, they would immediately seek to set up a hierarchy amongst themselves whenever a new S-rank was added.

The amount of destruction that came from that alone has led to the loss of entire villages and towns. He couldn't imagine how it would be if he were to announce Steve's power.

Thinking about this, Go Gunhee went through the rest of the small conference before finally retiring back to the Headquarters.

It was the only place he could go to now that he would escape these journalists, many of them would do anything to make more money, so he intended to stay very well out of reach.

….

The next day,

Steve was awake and ready for the day, he didn't know if it was because he had spent too long within the gate that he slept so comfortably on his bed.

Of course due to his strict situation back then he had developed the habit of waking at every turn or noise, the bloody incident was a weird exception that he still didn't have much of an explanation for.

With a body free of any injuries, good health and a new sense of power, Steve was ready to face whatever this would throw at him.

Of course, he still wasn't entering another gate unless necessary. With the Event behind him and a full day of nothing but relaxation, Steve immediately made his way to his sitting room as he relaxed and began watching TV.

Judy could be seen in the kitchen preparing some breakfast, she wasn't just a protector, she was also created to be his assistant.

"Food is ready" a soft female voice was heard as Steve looked up to see Judy walking to the dining room with various things floating around her.

Steve didn't think much of it after all, it was her abilities and she wasn't using it wrongly.

After a while, Steve had eaten, freshened up and could not be seen in a dirty apron as he descended to his basement.

Judy followed to assist as Steve got her to bring him more materials as he began to work.

With a holographic list before him, he went to work. First was his suit which was way beyond damaged. Thankfully, Judy could fold space as well as other elements, so he still had the materials he gathered within the gate.

Using the materials, he was able to repair the suit and even upgrade it. It was the most powerful thing he had created so far, save for Judy, who was practically a god.
