Go to the Past

Go to the Past
CH 1: Awakening




Pardon us. Get out of the party



Simple notification text is the end.


I'm a porter, but I got kicked out of the party. The reason is even more absurd.


Ignoring the request of the designated driver calling late at night.


He must have thought it was okay to treat him like that since he was not an official hunter but a porter.


It's a fucking thing.


I woke up early as usual, but I turned on the TV because there was no work.


While watching TV in a daze, envy surged.


[Youngest class B hunter, Park Chan-sung!]


On the screen, a handsome young man like an actor was walking with confidence.


A beautiful announcer congratulated Park Chan-sung Hunter on achieving his B level, and the panel entertainers clapped and laughed.


Seeing that, Siwoo muttered involuntarily.


"I'm jealous of that dog... Shit, I want to eat raw for the rest of my life, too."


I envy Park Chan-sung. Waking up as a C-class Hunter at the age of 19, he reached B-rank before he realized it.


He is like the main character in a novel.


The contrary…


Siwoo was 26 years old.


Since the age of 30, the chances of awakening are very low. There are four years left, but I'm getting nervous. If you think about it calmly, you can see that it is still too late.


'I should have joined any guild...'


I regret my past choices a little.


When Siwoo was 20 years old, he took a test of potential resurrection. Fortunately, the chances of awakening and its potential are quite high.


That's almost unprecedented.


As much as the myth circulated that the higher the chance of awakening, the better his abilities. Siwoo has emerged as a promising player.


All kinds of guilds came and poured out sweet words.


There were also many guilds who wanted to sign contracts before the resurrection.


There are also crazy people asking for an annual salary of over 100 million unconditionally.


At that time, Siwoo Choi was very confident. I refused because I was convinced that I would be bigger myself.


'I'm still in very good shape, how good is it after awomen?'


Two years have passed since then. I was preparing to get up by exercising with my part-time job every day, but there was no sign of a awakening.


I'm getting more and more anxious. At this point, most guilds lost contact.


The only place where I could barely connect was to ask me to contact her when I was on the scene.


I finished Hunter Academy for a year with the money I saved while working part-time.


Since then, for three years.I entered the gap almost every day as a porter. Believe in the superstition that the more often you touch a gap, the higher the chance of waking up.


Six years have passed. No guild contacted me anymore. Suddenly, Siwoo became a forgotten person.


so I did the porter's work with inertia, but now I'm getting tired.


- Giying


I looked at my phone in a vibrating voice and saw a text message.


-[Han So-Young] : Hey, I have a chat session today, are you coming along?


It was a message from a friend who used to live as a porter.


Seeing that, the conflict was still young.


Should I do more or should I give up?


"Ha···"


I sighed, but I gathered my spirit.


As much as I have devoted the rest of my life to becoming a Hunter, I cannot give up now.


"Yes, I have to go."


It's too early to give up.


One more year, one more year, let's do it.


When I made up my mind and tried to answer, an app caught my attention.


"[Reincarnation Management Application]


'What is this?'


This is the first app I saw. I've never seen or used an app like this before.


I press it and I hold it down to remove it, but the app runs on its own instead.


'Eh? This what?'


When I momentarily thought it was hacking, light came out of the smartphone.


And with no time to dodge, everything was absorbed.


Both eyes are exposed to bright light.


I hesitated and took one step back.


'Dog'


Angry moment.


Tring-!


As I opened my eyes with the sound of an alarm, a hologram appeared in front of me."


"[You have become the master of all things.]


'Eh?!'


A hologram will not appear in front of you when you wake up.


Most of those who woke up would have one superpower and instinctively knew how to use it, and that was it.


Holograms are diverse, but Siwoo also instinctively knows how to use psychic powers.


'...Management Window'."


[Grove deeper!]


[List of previous lives]


- Current life: [District 26]


- Access to previous life: [District 21], [District 31]


- Karma: 0


Siwoo tilted his head.


'I know that the world I live in is [District 26], but...'


- Do you want to access [District 21]?


'···No.'


"Wow.."


Taking a deep breath calms me a little.


I was thinking about what I should name, and I gave him the name of the most famous creature on Earth right now.


'Earth is the world of hunters.'


Somehow, I felt I could do it, so I tried it, and the results felt natural.


[District 26] → [Hunting District]


'I'm a little different now.'


I put the hologram to the side and closed my eyes.


I was interrupted by the alarm that appeared before my eyes, but there was something more pleasant.


Magic power.


The mana energy in the air that I couldn't feel before.


A mysterious aura swirling within the body.


I feel that power.


The evidence of the resurrection, mana, made me teary-eyed.


I picked up a dumbbell lying in the corner of the room.


'Light.'


It's not as heavy as a feather, but it's definitely lighter than yesterday.


I closed my eyes and enjoyed the magical power, then I opened my eyes as the alarm went off.


Tring-!


[New!] The quest has arrived.


'Quest?'


[Quest]


experience of past life


〉〉 Access to other past lives


Reception Prize: [Inventory (temporary)]


Success Rewards: Beginner Packages


Failure: Delete Quest


[Accept] [Refuse]


'Past life experience..? Are you trying to connect to other past lives?'


There was a reward just by receiving it, so I couldn't refuse.


-[Inventory (temporary)]: Part of the beginner's package. Lowest subspace


I almost pressed [Accept] without thinking, but then I hesitated.


Because I was worried about what would happen once I pressed accept.


'Once-once-once···'


***


Let's start with the equipment first.


Before that, she leaves a text message to her friend, Han So-young.


I'm sorry, I couldn't do it today. Let's drink together next time.


I picked up his clothes in a hurry and headed for the Hunters Association.


No one could buy exclusive equipment for Hunters.


If it was not a simple cloth or an iron sword, it required a registration certificate.


*


Sorry for the mistake before. Here is the continuation of the story you want:


I arrived at the Hunters Association and looked around.


Just then, someone called my name, "Choi Siwoo? Are you here?"


"Ahh, yes, I am here," I replied.


I approached the person who called me, an associate staff.


"Have you completed your magic power measurement?" ask the staff.


"Yes, it's done" I replied.


The staff continued, "You are an F-class Awakener. Have you graduated from the academy?"


"Yes, I graduated three years ago," I replied steadily.


I was a little disappointed at being ranked F, but I also felt that my abilities were different from ordinary Awakeners.


After that, I showed you the registration certificate of the Awakener I had obtained.


The staff looked at him and said, "His squad of measurable magic power is already registered. These certificates can be used as IDs and cards anywhere in the world. Congratulations on your resurrection again."


"Ahh, thank you," I said while feeling the weight of the certificate.


Now that you have obtained the Awakener registration certificate, it's time to purchase the Hunter equipment.


35 million won.


This was the money he had saved up during his three-year job as a porter. The money he had saved up to fit the hunter's equipment when he woke up, and the day had actually arrived.


I entered the Hunter Department Store with a trembling heart. As Siwoo stood before the dark red sword, an employee approached him.


"Oh, you have sharp eyes! Made from this black dragon bone." said the employee enthusiastically, explaining the unique material of the sword.


Siwoo took the sword. It was a sword he had promised to possess ever since he woke up as a Hunter, so everyone in the shop already knew about it.


With a smooth movement, Siwoo pulled the sword from its sheath, producing a satisfying sound. The sword had a dark red blade and a balanced center of gravity.


"From self-improvement functions to solid durability, this is a sword with the right functionality, in line with Seonghwa Group's reputation as a reliable seller!" obviously the employee.


I saw the price tag. 19.9 million won. It was more than I thought, but I realized that encrypted hunting equipment often had incredible prices.


Taking into account its quality and reputation for being cost-effective, this sword is relatively affordable.


"I will take it," said Siwoo, his gaze focused on the sword. The awkward expression on the employee's face suddenly turned bright.


"A very good choice!" call that employee.


Siwoo returned to his studio, sighing with a nervous expression. He had worn all the equipment he had bought.


"Wow." he said in amazement.


He took a deep breath and pressed the 'accept mission' button'.


At the same time, the idea of how to use [Inventory (temporary)] popped into his head.


It was a feature that made it easy to store and retrieve items like an inventory system in a game.
