Levelling by the Sidelines

Being one of the few hunters at the top, the S-ranked Marksman Hunter "Ace" had it all. A strong sense of combat, wealth, fame, and a bright future ahead of him. Yet, despite it all, he felt nothing at all to his feats. He was just content with his life, not wanting anything else. Having risen to unimaginable heights through battling many gates over the years, his glory was renowned throughout the world and was said to be one of the few hunters that would pave the path to a brighter future for their generation. Yet, that was all thrown out of the window. Almost a decade after The Great Awakening which shook the entirety of Terra, the Hunter "Ace" stood before many people as he announced something that no one could've ever imagined. "Today, I will be announcing my retirement." Yes. That day marked the end of one Hunter's journey. Though, it was not out of his own free will. [ Hunter "Jace"—class change will now begin. ] It was all because of a fateful notification he had received.

Episode 13: Ascension Trial (3)

"N-No way... Lazy Eyes, did you see that?!" As the stone golem crumbled before the two hunters, Landon blinked. "I-I one-shotted it...!"

"Dang... The golem just shattered just like that..." Jace muttered, soon taking a step forward towards the scattered stone pieces in the area. "Looks like the golem's stats weren't that good..."

"Clearly!" Landon cried out, still stunned by the scene before him. "No way I had enough firepower in me to kill something as tanky as a golem!"

"Mhm," he nodded his head in reply. "Since this is stage one of three, it's understandable. Though... I'm a bit worried about the later stage's difficulty."

Given that stage one was insanely easy, even for F-rank dungeon standards, Jace could only fear for the worst for the next two stages. After all, the Ascension Trial's difficulty could very well jump from an F-rank level stage to an A-rank one.
