Master Hunter K: Prologue


Prologue

 

“No…”

Sungjin reached out towards the heaven, but strength had already left him . Somewhere, the ‘Operator’s’ voice filled the air .

[All players Eliminated . Closing the Chapter . ]

Sight dimmed from Sungjin’s eyes, darkness creeping inward from the edge of his vision . Now that he faced imminent death, he finally found peace .

“I had enough of violence . I’m glad it is finally over . ”

He let the calm settle over him . Sungjin welcomed the approaching darkness, of his death . But the Operator’s voice continued to reverberate in the background .

[You have died . ]
[You were humanity’s very last remaining Player . ]
[Benefit awarded to the last player to die is “Restart”]

At the same time, a single line of text appears before his eyes .

Restart – Redo the hunt from the very beginning, but with current memory .

‘What?’

Before Sungjin could mutter another sentence, he opened his eyes and saw that he was now in an entirely white room . It was a familiar room, with perfectly square walls .

[Hunt will soon begin . Prepare for battle . ]

“Restart… from scratch?”

Sungjin lifted his arms . They felt empty . He examined his hands .

‘My rings are gone!”

It wasn’t just the rings, all the items he had been gathering until now were missing . He had been brought back moments before the first hunt . To the same room where everything began .

“Sigh…”

Sungjin massaged his forehead as he let out a withering sigh . In front of his eyes, a large bulletin board appeared .

Chapter 0 – Living Mannequin
Time Limit: 30 Seconds

At the same time, he heard a voice .

[Annihilate the enemy . If you cannot]

Sungjin absentmindedly spoke out the next words along with the operator .

“You will die . ”
[You will die . ]
