Ringtone
"Hello, who knows me?" Steve answered as soon as he picked up the call.
"Good day, sir. Am I speaking to Mr. Grant?" a female voice was heard from the other side of the call.
"Yes, what is it?"
"Okay, sir. I am from the Korean Hunter Association," the lady said.
"Okay?"
"Sir, on behalf of the United Hunter Association, you have been invited to the Association building tomorrow."
"This is because of my re-evaluation, isn't it?"
"I believe so, sir."
"Okay then, I'll be there," Steve said before the call was cut.
He wasn't all that surprised by the call. He had been expecting it for a while now and was even surprised that it hadn't come sooner. From the news circulating, the fact that he had entered the dungeon alone was now common knowledge.
The Association had no way of stopping that. It seemed as though no one had developed any form of ability that allowed them to completely overturn the internet.
There were pictures and camera footage from CCTV cameras in the area, ATMs, etc. It was from these that the theory that he was on par with a national-level hunter emerged.
He himself wasn't very sure if he actually was, since he had yet to assess his strength against the Chairman. He didn't think of it when he was with the man back then.
Since the main requirement to become a National Level Hunter was to clear an S-rank Gate alone, his best guess was that this invitation from the United Association was to re-evaluate him and place him in the appropriate rank.
Of course, it didn't matter much to him. His goal was to be rich, not to be a gate-hopping monkey. Gates were dangerous, and even if he was now more powerful, he didn't want to enter another gate again.
The new rank would definitely benefit him greatly. After all, it would elevate Arcane Tech to a whole new standing just because it was owned by a National Level Hunter.
Steve sat with that in his mind as the bots did their job. Due to their magical nature, the construction was progressing very quickly. Judy had long since provided enough materials, so all they had to do was build.
Just two hours later, Steve was looking at the newly built building. It looked exactly like the former but now came with added protection and a few other features.
Since it was done, the bots immediately returned to the truck. They were done, and now it was time for him to inspect the design and their work.
Steve entered the building and began to check everything, cross-referencing it with the blueprint he had with him. The building was a replica, as he had hoped it would be.
The building had two floors, the ground floor and the first. Both had undergone some serious changes that didn't really affect the overall look of the place; it still looked the same.
However, the interior was now designed to look like a shop. That was the original plan: the ground floor would be used for selling weapons, while the first floor would be used for all things clothing, be it armor or just fancy suits.
