Level up from class F

Ina was waiting in a cafe inside a department store. Ji-Woo called Ai about to arrive at the department store and asked her where she was and asked her to come into the cafe.

“You want to stay in the cafe? ”

Erase asked.

- It's been a long time. We need to talk.

“What time is it today? ”

- Two hours? ”

Ina said.

“Let's walk, then. Don't just sit there and waste your time. ”

Ina was speechless.

‘What, you shut up again because you don't like what I said? ’

Ina was the first woman Jiu had dated. I felt that I was spending more time in fights than happy times when I was in love. If there's anything I don't like, I wish I could say it, but I was angry that I had to say it without ever saying it. Ji-ha didn't think she was a good fit, but sometimes she was in need, and she didn't seem to have any intention of organizing her relationship with Ji-woo, so she just kept meeting.

In a way, human beings are like white shirts. Clearing never likes white shirts, but suddenly there comes a day when you have to wear white shirts. When you are bragging about organs by department or when you suddenly have to go to volunteer work, you should have a white shirt that you think will be there, and if you don't want to be embarrassed by people who dress up, you don't need to like it.

“I'll go to the department store. We'll see you there in 10 minutes. ”

After Jiu speaks, Ina pauses and hangs up the phone.

‘Ow, fuck! ’

There are a lot of things that don't suit the pupa. I could have taken it another time, but I didn't have enough mental space to erase it now.

Just a place to go on a date It's like sitting for hours, having a drink of water in each room that is creepy and frustrating, and sitting down to surf the internet on each other's smartphones and sometimes thinking about what to say. Then, while sitting, erase it three or four times first, ‘This is frustrating, but let's get up.’ And Ina used to stand up and leave with a furious look on her face.

‘But since we're still on the 150th anniversary, we should give them something as a gift. ’

Thinking about it, I thought about what would be appropriate as a gift to erase.

Among the men who lost their jobs and the men who lost their work and their girlfriends, I wanted to maintain my position first. I thought it would be a huge mental shock if I said good-bye now. It was hard to bear the anxiety of going down two stairs at once, not because I couldn't forget about her.

On the way to the department store, there was an 'Extreme Hunter’ store specializing in Hunter equipment. I could see the high-end squads, which were not easily seen on the road, being guided into the store parking lot.

My mouth opened by itself.

“That really tickles. ”

The eraser muttered without my knowledge.

Only Hunters could enter the store. The business seemed to think that taking people inside who were not the mistake would only cause unnecessary problems. Since the items in the store themselves are all very expensive products, it must have been an inevitable decision.

Outside the ‘Extreme Hunter’ store was a portrait of Hunter Tattoo, a symbol of Hunter. All Koreans with ROK nationalities were obliged to take the Hunter's Test from May 20 to 26 of the year when they turned 18. Those who were not tested were subject to enforcement charges. The government has made every effort to secure the number of hunters since it has been recognized as a competitive state.

After several trial and error attempts, the final way to settle was to immerse your right arm in the swamp. When someone with Hunter's abilities submerges his arm in the swamp, their chakra reacts with the swamp's special substance and tattoos appear on his arm. When you put your arm in the swamp and took it off, you get a black tattoo, and the person is recognized as qualified for the Hunter.

For those who received the test, the initial grade was an 'F’ mark, a job called a dealer or a tanker, and the stats were tattooed, and the tattoos obtained in the swamp changed on their own like a living life.

Unfortunately, the right arm of the 26-year-old eraser was still clean. If the tattoo was not expressed in one test, then it is over. There was no Hunter that didn't show up until the age of 18 and then got Awakened late. The moment you dip your arm in the swamp and pull it out, it is clearly distinguished. Hunter and the common man. One side is like an invisible mark engraved on the forehead of people who have gained tattoos and wealth and fame and have not received tattoos.

While watching the exterior of the 'Extreme Hunter’, Erase ran frantically thinking he was going to be late for his appointment with Ai.

Ina had come to the meeting place first and was waiting. But I didn't wait long.

Ji-woo gasps, running and stopping in front of Ain. Ain looks irritated.

“You didn't bring a car? ”

Ina asked.

“I was out there because I had something to do. ”

Anyway, he was a little late and didn't want to fight about anything, so he wrapped around her shoulder and calmed her down.

“Can I look forward to this anniversary? ”

Ina asked.

“Huh?"

“My friends make good money with boyfriends. So even though it's not necessarily an anniversary, he was holding a gift. ”

“So, are you jealous of them? ”

“I envy you. Of course you do. ”

“What do you want? ”

Erase asked.

What do you want? I don't want to buy it all just by telling you, but I immediately asked her a question.

“Why? Will you buy me one if I tell you? ”

“I haven't bought you much in a while. I can buy you one this time. ”

Erase it as softly as possible.

“Really? Actually, I've always wanted something. ”

“You sell that at this department store? ”

“Yes.”

“Yes. Let's go in and see. What it is.”

“Are you really going to buy it? Wow, I should show off. ”

“First, report. ”

“Will you still buy it for me? ”

“Let's go see her first. ”

Neurological warfare broke out between Ina Kim, who wanted answers, and Jiu, who needed to avoid answers.

The distance between each floor of the escalator was quite long and bored while the escalator was moving. Ji-Woo was leaning sideways, and I saw a man standing on the escalator coming up from below. There's Hunter's tattoo on his right arm. Your shoulders and arms are tight and your tight shirt looks like it's going to explode from a broken body.

"Wow!"

The eraser looked at the tattooed arm while pulling his neck long until the moment the man disappeared from the cross-moving escalator. Hunter felt itchy just standing on the escalator.

What kind of hunter are you? Hunton for Raid? Even if you're a long-distance dealer, you make like 100 million a month. ’

I felt jealous to erase it, so I sighed. Meanwhile, Ina is chattering, standing beside Jiu. Ina's words did not come into her ears. He also said that his friend, who received a brand of bag from his boyfriend, searched the internet to find out how much the gift bag cost, and he couldn't figure out what to do when he talked about it without resting.

“Sweetheart.”

“Huh?"

“Actually, I have something to tell you. ”

“What?”

“At your company. ”

“Let's talk about it after shopping. ”

“Why?”

“The atmosphere seems to be getting heavier. ”

I tried to ask him why he thought that, but he just closed his mouth. Ina went straight to the shoe store and went straight to the corner that she had seen.

“One of my friends got married early, brother. She got married when she was 20 and went to school, and she said she got scolded for giving her mother-in-law a two million won bag. ”

“Why? Luxury? ”

“No. They told me to just come empty-handed to buy them. Their mother-in-law doesn't want to go under $5 million. ”

“You're crazy.”

“Oh, brother. You can't say that. I get it. Women need stuff like that. ”

“I'm telling you. If that's what you're asking me to buy, I can't. I won't buy you one. ”

“Not that much. ”

It was a strategy.

When I heard that it was 2 million won because it was 5 million won in the beginning, I felt lighter when I saw the 8.9 million won pump. However, I didn't mean to, but I thought I could quietly move on with it.

Ji-Woo went to the counter to calculate the pump, and I saw the man I saw at the escalator put things on top of it first. It looked good at first glance.

When she left the shoes that she had chosen, it looked good too, but it was nothing compared to shoes that are now on the counter and waiting for calculation. The shoes he picked were as luxurious and attractive as Cinderella's just having to come and shove them in.

“Oh, must be Hunter. ”

The caseworker smiled and treated the shoes politely while putting them in the case.

“Yes.”

The man was cool.

“You have a great eye for women's shoes. ”

“My mother only wears this brand. You don't even have to wear them. You know how they come out. This brand makes my feet feel comfortable. ”

“I hope you have a kind son and you like your mother. ”

“I don't come and see you often, so I'll just take it with me. ”

“Oh, you must be so happy. I envy you."

“No, I'm not good at anything. ”

Some people wait behind, just trying to figure out what's left of it, and the cashier tries desperately to keep going.

“$4.7 million. Are you going to count on Hunter's card? ”

“Yes.”

The man hands out the Hunter's card.

“Will you pay in one lump sum? ”

“Yes? Yes. It's a lump sum, of course. Hahaha.”

What's so funny about that? ’

As the time for waiting in the back row grew longer, the patience of the eraser was running out.

“Well, I hope you have a good day. ”

It's finally time for Ji-Woo to settle, and the man returns.

“Can I leave this here and see some more stuff? ”

“Yes? Yes. Yeah, there's a lot of new stuff in here, so if you take your time, you'll find more things you like. ”

“I'm trying to get out of here, but something looks good. ”

The man placed his shopping bag on the counter and looked around the store. Ji-woo placed the shoes she had chosen on the counter.

“Enough..."

Ina suddenly said.

“Huh?"

Ji-Woo looked at Ain and asked.

“I'm not buying. ”

“You said you'd seen it a long time ago. ”

“Oh, it's just... Never mind.”

“What's the matter with you? What's wrong with you? ”

I suddenly felt annoyed when I erased it, and I shouted quite loudly. Ina flinches under pressure as she suddenly clears her anger.

“Okay. Buy to live. ”

Ina says that she seems to be giving up a great deal.

“Buy to buy? Do I live for shoes? Are you trying to be nice to me? ”

“Haaa, seriously! All right, all right, buy me one. ”

"It got hot early and this is crazy! ’

Ji-Woo stared at Ain, but Ain said to the clerk, avoiding the gaze.

“I'm going to buy this, wrap it up. ”

“Yes. 800 won. How would you like to calculate? One lump sum, or... ”

“In installments of six months. ”

Ji-Woo said.

“Yes, I'll help you with the math. ”

Her face turned red. It seemed like it was going to steam up on my face.

After a while, I realized that the word that bewitched Ina Kim was the word 'installment'.

I thought it must be crazy.

When Ji-Woo accepted the cards and shopping bags, Ina left without looking back. Ji-Woo chased after Ain.

“Kim In!”
