"What's calling me in study hours?"
Vin asked after sitting down in front of Jerome
"You're the one student who talks to me like that. If it's anyone else, they'll be polite, but you're not. As if you've known me for a long time. Haha, interesting.."
Jerome said laughing
"Well, whatever it is.. What's up?"
Vin asked as if he didn't care
"The reason I call you is...I want you to show your true strength in the Tournament later"
Jerome said suddenly - seriously
"I was weak, so I was placed in the Middle Class3. Every day I'm always serious"
Reply Vin
"Haha, please don't act like you're weak. The gate of that time.. You finished it, didn't you?"
Ask Jerome
"No, wasn't that done by Yuna?"
Vin asked back
"We've reevaluated Hunter Yuna, but she's still rated A, there's no improvement. And the Gate that you entered at that time, was the S Rank Gate so there was no way Yuna could have finished it alone"
Jerome
"Certainly? Why do you think I finished it? Aren't there many other Hunters there?"
Ask Vin streak
"It's still not polite... Based on the testimony they gave, it was said that everyone was unconscious. Except for Yuna and you, they were convinced by that because you two were the ones who woke the others up. If it wasn't Yuna.. Means the one who finished it was you, who was considered the weakest in the group"
Jerome
"Hmm? If you know why it keeps on.. What's in it for me? Just waste - waste energy"
Vin said
"When what if money? Usually young people like money.."
Jerome's Proposal
"I'm not interested in money. Your offer doesn't interest me"
Said Vin casually
"Hmm.. What if Runestone? or the Spirit Stone? How's it?"
Jerome's proposal again
"Ga's interested, if there's no more. I'm leaving"
Vin started to get up from his seat
"Wait a minute.. The Hunters wanted this, but you refused.. Then what are you asking for? I'll grant it as long as it's within my means.."
Jerome's Pinta
"Then what if we were partners.. I want to know what it's like to have a Raid with you"
Vin said smiling
It's been a long time for Vin not to team up with Jerome.. They used to frequent one Raid along with the number of 5 people. They are even referred to as the Best Party ever formed. Their role was perfect for a team, just like the current Top 1 class.. But with greater strength..
"Haha.. All the big offers were rejected, I guess from the beginning you didn't accept the offer.. But wanting one Raid with me was pretty shocking to me.. I don't think that's all you want, haha.. All right, if you go after the tournament is over, we'll do some Raid... Prepare yourself until then.. Then you can go"
Jerome said with a satisfied smile
"Okay, I'm gonna win this one"
Said Vin with the same smile as Jerome
And somehow before Vin left they did 'Tos' unconsciously.

Today, is the day the Tournament begins. Many representatives or even Presidents from various countries were present. High-class hunters also come, including Hero-class Hunters. The Hunters who were not allowed to watch this Tournament were given the task of guarding their respective countries. It doesn't make sense that all the powerful Hunters gathered here, who closed the Gate if there wasn't a strong Hunter?
Currently Rea and Michael were enjoying their newly purchased Popcorn at the venue around the Tournament. Seeing the two who were like children like this, made Garan momentarily forget that they were strong Hinter. The four of them went to America to watch. Garan, Rea, Michael, and Yena. Garan tells Rea to enjoy the tournament and forget about Elan's troubles for a while.
Why is Yena coming? He came because he wanted to see his brother compete in this Tournament. She was Yuna, with an age gap of about 2 years. Yuna herself asked for school here, her parents also according to what Yuna said.
Asked Rea lazily
"You'll find out later, I think the tournament is a little interesting"
Garan
"What makes it interesting?"
Ask Michael
"I told you to see for yourself"
Said Garan hitting the two slowly

[Tournament review is about to begin, spectators are expected to enter the building, and begged the participants to be prepared - ready]
After hearing that, everyone around the building flocked into the building. This place is quite spacious, until it can accommodate 500,000 people, with a small arena with a length and width of 20 meters.
For the Tournament examination, it will be conducted in an artificial Gate. This new research from Hunter researchers, this artificial gate aims to maximize the training of the Hunters, so they do not feel afraid to destroy the settlement of residents. And also there were no monsters in it because it was 'Create'. Hunter who was dying from the attack, will be teleported out of the Gate and immediately healed by the existing officers. Even this Gate could tell where the condition of someone would die, in this way there would be no casualties in the Tournament.
And the match began. The participants, numbering around 450 people, entered the Gate provided. Once they're all in, everything will be randomly placed on each team. So this is entirely a team game, with an Elimination system. Inside the building there is a large hologram image located in the middle of the Arena. This hologram shows, the tests are taking place in turn.
Many voices cheered after seeing the Hunter from his country appear on the hologram earlier, well even though those inside the gate could not hear it anyway.
After 10 minutes passed, the remaining participants who were still competing were 300 participants. To be able to enter the Tournament, it would require around 80 people. But because someone formed a team with 2 people (Vin equals Yuna) then the number changed to 77 people.
5 Minutes later..
"Hoooo! Yunaa!"
Garan said shouting loudly
Seeing that, the remaining three people looked down in embarrassment.
Yena only smiled widely after seeing Yuna fighting elegantly. Apart from being a Healer, he could also use a sword, as he was the grandson of a 'Gladiator'. He must have learned that from Garan.
While the others were happy to see Yuna, Rea's eyes were fixed on the person behind Yuna. Who her?
"Did Yuna ever tell you about her friend?"
Rea asked Garan and Yena
"Often, she says her classmates are strong - strong. But no one is stronger than him if it's a Healing problem" he said."
Clear Garan
"Did she ever tell you about a friend who wasn't in class with her?"
Rea asked curiously
"Looks like nothing, he always boasts of his classmates when we call. Oh, if it's not wrong he ever told me about someone. He said he was so strong, that it made Yuna herself a little scared."
Obviously Yena
"Hoo, thanks for the information"
*Who is he? Strong, but not class? His appearance was a little suspicious, he was like the 'Slayers' because of his clothes. Black cloak with skull mask. Same as what was described on TV!*
Think Rea
"Grandfather! after this please help me to meet his partner Yuna, it seems like I know him a little"
Pinta Rea is serious
"Huh? Who's she?"
Ask Michael
Garan looks a little confused
"He was the 'Slayers' who killed the whole family of Ferros!"
Rea said seriously
"...!"
"...!"
"...!"
"...!"
