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 18: A Way Out (7)

"H-Huh...?" At the young man's question, the injured man's eyes opened wide in shock. "Y-You want to have a talk with s-someone like me...? But why...?"

"Err... Well..." In reply to his words, Jace scratched his head helplessly. "Rather than talk, It's more that we have a few questions to ask you. If you don't mind answering them, of course."

"Y-You have a few questions for me...?" he shuddered. "U-Um..."

"It's mostly simple questions," the black-haired man coughed at his hesitance. "So it's nothing too bad."

"A-Ah... Is that so...?" he sighed with relief. "T-Then, sure..."

"Alright..." Taking a deep breath in the next second, his attention was now fully on the injured man before him. "So first things first, could you tell us your name?"

"I-It's Randy..." he answered. "M-My name's Randy."

"I see..." Jace nodded his head at his reply. "Then, Randy... Do you mind telling us more about this place? We're kind of lost, you see."
