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 14: One's Soul (5)

As the black-haired man's eyes landed on the woman before him, the two hunters stared at one another. At that moment, an awkward silence protruded out into the air.

"Uh, hello, Jace..." Malory coughed. "It's nice meeting you again so soon..."

"...what are you doing here?" Jace blinked in confusion, turning his attention back to Landon who was nervously laughing.

"Ahaha... So, uh... Funny story!" The blonde-haired man scratched his head in awkwardness. "It was originally meant to be just the four of us like usual! But then... On my way back yesterday, I ended up coming across Malory... And uh..."

"I asked Landon here whether you guys were planning on going into any dungeons anytime soon," the woman followed up with his words. "While I know it wasn't my place to ask, since we didn't really know each other... I thought it wouldn't hurt."

"And then I just invited her, you know!" Landon coughed. "T-There's nothing wrong with that, right?"
