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.

"..." Jace remained silent in response, waiting for further elaboration from the brown-haired woman.

"You must be fully aware that I'm from an entirely different guild," she clutched her chest with her right hand. "So, the link in itself would be useless to you and me pretty soon, since I doubt we would have many opportunities to work together in the same team in the future," she frowned. "But... More importantly, I feel that it is rather unfair for you if I keep the link but not do my part to help improve it. After all, even if it's a passive buff, from the looks of it, it seems that it isn't only just a buff to me, but to you as well."
