Three years after the Skullbreaker attack incident, a young man filled with enthusiasm ran out of his house and headed towards the Academy of Huntector. His light blue hair fluttered in the wind as he moved at a fast pace.

The Academy of Huntector was established by the royal family and is located in the capital city of Grandecy. Its purpose is to assess and consolidate the qualifications of citizens. Children who are thirteen years old and have completed six years of basic education can enroll in the Academy of Huntector. By completing a ten-month course and passing the assessment, they officially become Homeland citizens, recognized by the country and this land. It is also one of the necessary qualifications to become a "Huntector."

Being a Huntector is considered the noblest profession for humans, superior to ordinary guards. The two words "Huntector" represent hunting danger and protecting humans and nature. Becoming a Huntector is strict, requiring not only being a Homeland citizen but also passing special approval. However, for these newcomers, it is still too far away.

Because citizenship is crucial, residents of the three major cities and villages, apart from Grandecy, gather at the Academy during this time every year for enrollment. During this period, all residents of the four city districts come together in Grandecy, making it the most prosperous city among the four.

The young man hurriedly ran towards the academy as being late for registration was not allowed. If he missed it, he would have to wait another year.

"Oh no, I was so nervous last night that I couldn't sleep, and as a result, I overslept this morning. Sigh..." While he was distracted by his worries, a dark shadow appeared from the side at lightning speed, and the two collided.

The young man was about to ask what happened when the figure of a girl came into view, followed by a series of complaints. "Can't you watch where you're going? Running around recklessly and bumping into people. I'm in a hurry!"

Before the young man could reply, the girl quickly stood up and set off again, heading in the same direction as if rushing to enroll. The young man snapped out of it and realized he couldn't afford to daydream now. He immediately sprinted forward, but he couldn't see the girl's figure anymore.

Arriving at the academy, sturdy wooden pillars stood on either side of the entrance, bearing the marks of battle scars on their wood grain, a testament to the passage of time. According to historical records, this academy was established shortly after the four cities were built, and many renowned heroes and warriors hailed from here.

Extending from the entrance was a stone wall adorned with spikes at the top, with vines slowly hanging down from the crevices. It seemed challenging for ordinary people to infiltrate the academy.

The young man noticed that the girl had already completed the registration and entered the academy. The registrar also put up a sign indicating the end of enrollment, preparing to pack up the registration booth. He looked at the registrar with a disappointed expression, almost on the verge of tears, blaming himself for running too slowly.

"It's her... If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have to wait another year." He started blaming the girl he collided with in his heart.

"Your Honor, please let him register as well. He's my neighbor, and we ran here together, but he was too slow, so I didn't wait for him to register first." Surprisingly, the girl turned back and coquettishly pleaded with the prosecutor. This action surprised the young man greatly, and he was relieved that he didn't blurt out his inner thoughts in a moment of impulse.

The prosecutor stroked his thin beard and looked at the girl's irresistible smile, pondering for a moment. "Alright, young man, what's your name?"

The young man smiled gratefully at the girl and replied respectfully, "Thank you, Your Honor... My name is Shoyo."
