Jinhyuk sat on the edge of a tall building, legs dangling off the side, overlooking the neon-bathed city.
It was 2:03 AM.
The perfect hour for plans.

He stared at the flickering prompt.
And smiled.

He leaned back.
The guild wasn't for prestige. Not for wealth.
It was a weapon.
A personal army. A team of monsters.
To crash the Hunter Banquet.
To tear apart every arrogant family who had forgotten his father.
To crush the tower and the sects that laughed at him.

Jinhyuk's Thoughts
"Alright. Time to start hunting."
---
Later That Night – The Lower Slums
A gang of awakened criminals surrounded a chained girl—bloodied, bruised, trembling.
"You scream pretty loud for a healer," the leader chuckled, blade dragging across the ground.
Then—
A sudden flicker.
Darkness fell.
A voice, low and calm, echoed behind them.
"You're standing in my hunting zone."

Jinhyuk Stepped Out of the Shadows
He didn't draw a weapon.
Didn't chant.
Didn't even raise his voice.
He just looked at them.
> [Skill Activated: Killing Intent – Suppression Field]
[Mental Breakdown Chance: 76%]
[Success.]
They collapsed, one by one, gasping like drowning men.
Only the leader remained, barely standing, eyes wild.
"You… what the hell are you—!"
Snap.
One step. One palm strike. Silence.

The Girl Looked Up, Shaking
"…W-Who are you…?"
He offered a hand.
"Kang Jinhyuk. You're strong. You just don't know it yet."
"W-Why… why save me?"
"Because I'm building something. And I think you're worth the gamble."

Jinhyuk turned away, the girl trailing behind.
"One down."
His eyes gleamed under the moonlight.
"Four to go."
