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 (5)

"Phew... That's over with..." As the final hobgoblin before the two hunters turned into grey ash, Jace sighed with relief. "That took a lot in me to purposefully miss my shots..."

"Ugh. I know my accuracy can be abysmal, but to miss my shots on purpose is..." Landon scratched his head helplessly, taking a look at the dual pistols in his hands. "Ahhh! What kind of Marksman am I?!"

"Hmm, well... To be honest, your title's trait doesn't really help with your case either," the young man stated. "It rewards you for missing your attacks rather than for accuracy. I feel that it's to the point that it's better to miss often instead of accurately hitting your target each time."

"Man... I know my title's damage increase is pretty good, but..." he sighed. "Aren't Marksmen supposed to be all about accuracy? Why is my title so different from the others?! How come it's all about missing my attacks???"

"...you question that now?" Jace blinked.
