Chapter 7 - Awakening

Suho's eyes snapped open, and he sat up with a start, his heart racing. As he looked down at his hands, he noticed a faint, blue glow emanating from them. A notification window suddenly popped up in front of him, displaying his new status:

Name: Suho

Rank: E

Title: Hunter

Suho's face set in determination. "I've become a Hunter...but what does that mean?" he wondered aloud.

Just then, Beru entered the room, a small smile on her face. "Congratulations, Suho. You've awakened as an E-rank Hunter."

Suho's curiosity got the better of him. "What's the difference between ranks? And what's my role as a Hunter?" he asked, his eyes locked on Beru.

Beru explained, "Hunters are tasked with maintaining balance in the world. Ranks indicate strength and responsibility. E-rank is the starting point. As you grow stronger and complete missions, you'll rank up and take on more challenging tasks."

Suho nodded eagerly, hungry to learn more. Beru smiled, seeming to approve of his enthusiasm.

With Beru's guidance, Suho began his training, practicing basic Hunter skills. At first, he struggled to control his newfound powers, but gradually, he improved. Beru presented him with a sleek, black weapon, which Suho took, feeling a surge of energy and purpose.

As he faced a simulated training opponent, a shadowy creature, Suho unleashed his Shadow Arts energy, striking the creature with a burst of darkness. The creature dissipated, and Suho stood victorious.

Beru nodded in approval. "You're progressing quickly, Suho. But remember, being a Hunter comes with risks and challenges. You must always be prepared."

Suho's determination only grew stronger. He was ready to face whatever lay ahead, armed with his newfound powers and his unwavering resolve.
