#009
Born at 26:41 on October 3, 2036 in Sariwon Metropolitan City, Im Hana could clearly say that she has lived a happy life.
Born into an upper-middle-class hunter family, she never knew hunger.
I didn’t know exactly what it meant to be unloved by my parents.
Also, I didn’t know that it was extreme fatigue and lack of learning.
To her, this world was like a garden designed for a happy life.
A place where you can get it if you want it, and if you do it, you can achieve it.
In fact, this world was a place where monsters crawled out of the dungeon gate and all sorts of things happened beyond the world gate.
It was risky, but the sky seemed to take good care of her and gave her an interesting talent as a gift.
“honey! Honey! My kid uses magic!”
“ha ha ha!”
Perhaps because she resembles her parents, she excelled in magic from an early age.
Total amount of magic power, magic efficiency, magic power, magic application.
There was nothing wrong with either one.
If you grow properly, middle and upper level hunters will be the basics.
That is why parents pay more attention to the education of their children.
Since kindergarten, they have conducted education according to their own eye level, not through external means such as hagwons or private tutors.
“Hana, here’s a piece of ice!”
“An ice cream tot! lol!”
“Ummaang! My sister is like that, but why can’t I?”
Of course, with my two-year-old younger brother who talks a lot and complains a lot.
It was around the time when I was about to eat one year at a time.
“Oh, hello? What’s your name?”
“My Name? Come on!”
A child who moved next door when he was 7 years old.
My name is Kang Xian, and I’m the same age.
Even going to the same kindergarten, the two quickly became friends.
Im Hana had many people who could be called friends, but that was the first time she had really made a close friend.
“lol! Sian, your ears are unique!”
“Hana, can you stop pulling your ears?”
Kang Xian accepted everything from Hana Im.
Sometimes it even tells you what the right path is.
He was just as good as his parents, and he was someone he could depend on.
“I didn’t know that the US would raise interest rates at a time like this. It’s a big deal.”
“gold… … ? Sian, is something really bad happening?”
“Is it one? No, nothing.”
“???”
However, even to young Im Hana, Kang Xian did not look very happy.
Both of his parents who were hunters passed away, so he was raised by his aunt, and unlike himself, he had no magical talent.
Once, I wanted to see him use magic, so I taught him diligently.
“… … .”
“… … snowflake?”
All it took was a few snowflakes to come out of the palm of my hand.
It was very sad.
Unfortunately, however, time did not stand still.
In the blink of an eye, the two entered elementary school.
Hana Im went to elementary school without much change from when she was in kindergarten.
Exactly, it would have been.
“Poetry, Shiaaa… … .”
What happened before vacation.
Chunmai and Kangxian fought, and Kangxian was defeated after his arm was broken.
At that time, Hana Im felt deep despair for the first time.
The fact that a friend who is close to you but likes it has become such a miserable situation.
“Someone said that it happened because someone hit Xian… … .”
“Beating people carelessly is the act of a villain!”
“I must have learned this much magic! I will protect Xian!”
and from this point on.
He decided that he had to protect Kang Xian.
Because he was dangerous and weak.
‘I’ll definitely take revenge!’
If there is just one unfortunate thing.
Even if he made a decision right away, nothing would change.
Even after that, Chun Ma-ri and Kang Xian fought every time they met.
Fighting while walking down the hallway, going to another classroom and fighting, fighting on the way to school, fighting while running at sports day, fighting on a fictional day, fighting after going to the PC room together.
It was a dog, and it was a natural enemy.
A relationship that seems to end only when one of them dies.
As a result, it was normal for the two of them to turn into a pair by the time they left school.
In fact, it was a daily routine for them to fight while being paired up with each other.
“Kyaaagh! You bastard!”
“Kyaaagh! bitch like a dog!”
A showdown between a proud regressor and a possessor.
Seeing this, the teachers took many measures to separate the two.
If there was a problem, it was that trying to separate kids who fought for no reason was a bad idea.
It was all in vain and the same thing was repeated over and over again.
In the end, he called the guardians of both sides and invited them to transfer, but as both sides refused, it became a concern of the school.
“Hey, will Mari and Xian fight today?”
“Yeah? I don’t know.”
“Do you think we will fight? I’ll bet 2,000 won on fighting during the break after the third period today.”
“3,000 won for lunch and the rest of the time.”
“I don’t think it will be today, but I think I will do it tomorrow. is not it.”
At the same time, it became a school specialty.
After fighting so much, there is no one who doesn’t know anymore.
Some children whispered that they were doing that because they liked each other.
“ah… … .”
Hana Im sighed.
To think that a friend who goes to and from school every day and hangs out on the weekends is treated like this.
Each time his head grew fuller and the calendar changed, his anger increased.
In order to end this, the capable himself had to take revenge.
However, there was no confidence, and his own strength was not trusted.
Moreover, that vicious villain was a child who was so venomous that he had no friends.
The term crazy witch suited her, and she was worried that something terrible could happen if she touched her.
‘I, later… … please… … revenge… … .’
Vagueness turned to fear.
In the end, the fight continued in a situation where even close friends stood by.
“September Hunter Academy taught by A-class hunter and genius wizard Seo Ah-yeon! Actively recruiting elementary, middle, and high school students!”
“Hunter… … Academy?”
Then one day.
Hana Im faced something that would be a turning point in her life.
“mom! Dad! send me here!”
A piece of paper I got while walking down the street.
This time, I showed the promotional material for the newly opened Hunter Academy to my parents.
“Hunter academy? Is the director a wizard?”
“Oh, isn’t this the newly opened academy over there at the intersection?”
“From what I heard from my colleagues, these academies are generally not good… … .”
Her parents were against it at first.
I think they should just teach themselves like this and follow the school curriculum.
I heard that Hunter Academy’s kids are violent and of poor quality.
Rather, as a friend, Kang Xian now seems like a really upright kid.
Should I really do this?
It was a reasonable decision, and a wise one.
But no matter how good your judgment, they were parents.
I couldn’t ignore the child’s earnest request.
“I didn’t know that Teacher Hana would recommend it… … .”
“The academy will take you home at 9:00. I will adjust the schedule accordingly.”
“Wouldn’t it be better to reduce the amount of money that goes into the installment savings account for school fees?”
“yes. If it doesn’t work, I’ll earn a little more.”
Hunter academy started going like that.
It was a series of sights I had never seen before and a series of new people.
At first, it was unfamiliar and scary.
The idea that I don’t know what will happen here, that I don’t know what I’m going to learn, that I don’t know what the people I’m teaching with will do.
It was rampant hostility, and it was a natural instinct of a child.
Im Hana continued to think of what she had to do and endured it as much as possible.
‘Bad villain… … evil witch… … I have to protect it.’
However, as time passed, I got used to it.
On the contrary, I wondered if this was tolerable, but I wondered if I should make a firm resolution.
Should I say it’s a blessing or a tragedy?

Learning magic at the academy and hanging out with people gradually became fun.
“Wow! That is amazing! what is your name?”
“Hanaya, let’s get along well from now on!”
“Can you give me your phone number?”
“that’s right!”
Revenge, the future to look at, my dream, the work to be done, the goal to be created.
The promise, which was like letters written on glass, was slowly washed away.
It was selfish, but on the other hand, it was the mindset and behavior of a peer.
She’s 24 hours a day.
No, I invested a large part of the 30-hour day in things related to the academy.
“Guys, let’s go together-“
“uh? One!”
Naturally, seeing Kang Xian gradually decreased.
Sometimes they broke their promises and were openly annoyed.
However, Kang Xian generously accepted them all.
After that, when the 2nd semester of the 4th year came, I saw less of them fighting.
He didn’t know if it was because he was negligent or because Kang Xian fought less.
Even though interest in him had waned in reality, he still regarded it as usual because he was a ‘close friend’ in his heart.
Therefore, I believed that these days would continue.
“It’s dark, so go have dinner. Adding one person won’t change anything anyway.”
“Oh really?”
Actually, it was my own misunderstanding.
I couldn’t help but spit out words to myself as I watched Chunmari enter Kang Xian’s house.
“Sian, why… … ?”
It was a shock itself that the relationship between the two seemed so friendly.
Coexistence with the villain was thought to be impossible, but such a thing was happening in reality.
It was Kang Xian himself who even defined that Cheonmae as a bad person.
It was something that couldn’t happen, and shouldn’t have happened.
Feeling betrayed, like being hit with a hammer.
This evening felt so long.
And the next day, Hana Lim came across a story that was being told at school.
“No, Kang Xian and Chun Ma… … .”
“Wow, crazy, crazy. Did you fight and win?”
“The reason why the 6th graders are so excited right now is that they’re afraid they’ll beat them.”
“I heard that someone was already beaten with a broomstick by Cheonmai for teasing Kang Xian.”
“Who hit who?”
A suspicious story in which the names of the two were mentioned.
Im Hana asked a question, and was shocked once more by the story that goes beyond common sense.
