Knuckle, Shoot, and Palm all had significant strength and were rapidly improving. They just needed an opportunity to make a major achievement.
That chance hadn't come yet, but Germain had quickly seized the opportunity to become a "one-star hunter." Thinking about this made the three disciples lower their heads in silence.
Morel noticed the silence and chuckled, "Don't let it get to you. Knov and I aren't rushing this kind of thing. What's important for you is to keep moving forward step by step."
"Palm."
Knov also looked at Palm through the rearview mirror.
"Morel and I aren't training you to become 'two-star or three-star hunters'. We value your talent and hard work and have taken you because of this. Do you understand?"
"Got it..." Palm's eyes lit up, and he excitedly bit his tongue.
"Understood!" Knuckle and Shoot also responded firmly from the back seat: "Teacher, we will definitely keep working hard!"
Morel and Knov, sitting in the front, smiled gently.
Germain continued to look out the window.
That night, the SUV was parked in the underground parking lot of a hospital in another city, and Germain was admitted to the hospital.
After completing their task, Knov took Palm and left, even turning down Morel's invitation for drinks and a meal.
As for Morel and his disciples, they stayed at the hospital to keep watch.
Two days later, on April 15th, Germain received three pieces of good news from Morel.
The first was that the doctors finally believed Germain had fully recovered and could be discharged from the hospital. Despite the unusually fast recovery, it was a fact.
Medicine is about discovering facts and dealing with them.
The second point is that Germain's "One-Star Hunter" honor has been awarded, but it won't be announced on the professional hunter website for now and will remain confidential.
"You are the fastest professional hunter to achieve the 'star' rank in history! Come on, Germain, give me your hunter license. I will send it to the Hunter Association, or you can go there in person."
The Fifth Generation Hunter Association awarded Germain a "star" and will handle the follow-up.
"Your Hunter License will be slightly modified by the Hunter Association and changed into a 'One-Star Hunter License'."
Morel had experienced this process before and was very familiar with it.
Germain asked calmly, "What is the difference between a 'One-Star Hunter License' and a 'Normal Hunter License'?"
Morel was momentarily stunned, thought about it, and replied:
"Uh... the appearance will just have some additional decorations and anti-counterfeiting features. Besides that, your authority will be expanded, you'll have the chance to become a senior executive of the Hunter Association, and your information will be kept more confidential."
"So if I don't send my 'General Hunter License' to the Hunter Association, I won't get these benefits, right?"
"That's not the case," Morel replied. "Your 'One-Star Hunter' status is already in the records. Even if you use your 'General Hunter License' now, it will have the same effect."
"In a more extreme case, it's like Ging, the 'Boar of the Zodiac'. He doesn't know where his 'Two-Star Hunter License' went, but it doesn't affect his 'Two-Star Hunter Status'."
Germain knew where Ging's 'Two-Star Hunter License' had gone. It was first used as an exam question by his disciple Kite and later passed to his son Gon.
However, once you reach the level of Ging, the 'Hunter License' isn't very useful. With his many achievements, Ging could have become a 'Three-Star Hunter', but he chose not to apply for it.
"So it doesn't matter?" Germain waved his hand. "Forget it, I won't send it. I have other things to do, so I don't have time to send it or go to the Hunter Association."
Morel smiled bitterly and shook his head. "You really don't care about these things. Alright, I'll report it to the Hunter Association honestly. There aren't many people like Germain, but there are a few. The Hunter Association won't be so petty as to revoke the 'Star' rating just because of this."
As for the third piece of news, Morel had quickly received the two sets of custom-made clothes he had ordered.
"This is the work of the One-Star Hunter, a Fashion Hunter!" Morel spread the clothes on the bed and showed them to Germain. "The tailor will make them more durable."
"It's a pity the time was too short. Given more time, these outfits could have been made even better."
"They're good enough," Germain said, examining the two sets of black hunter robes. He touched them with his hands. "I care more about durability. Fancy designs mean nothing to me. Anyway, thanks."
"You're welcome. Why don't you try them on and see if they fit?" Morel suggested.
Germain looked closely at the two black hunter robes and agreed, "Okay."
The ordinary black hunter robe was almost identical to the previous one, with only a few slight changes made by the "Fashion Hunter."
The Bird-beak Hunter Black Robe, also known as the "Crow Hunter Black Robe," had a style similar to the ordinary black hunter robe, except for the bird-beak mask.
Originally, the bird-beak hunter's robe was decorated with a crow feather cloak, but Germain removed it during the design process to better match his taste.
Germain went to the bathroom, changed into the black bird-beak hunter robe, put on gray-black gloves and boots, and finished by donning the bird-beak mask, hiding his handsome face.
When he emerged, Knuckle and Shoot entered the room. They were surprised by Germain's new look.
After Morel explained, the two disciples finally understood the situation.
Germain packed another set of black hunter robes into his suitcase and got ready to leave the hospital.
Morel and his two disciples saw him off at the gate.
"I thought the bird-beaked doctor who treated the Black Death in the Middle Ages had come to the modern world," Morel said with a playful smile. "That's good. Wearing a mask will save you a lot of trouble."
Knuckle touched his crew cut and pondered, "Should I also wear a mask? One with 'Mystery Mask' or something like that printed on it?"
"You'd better forget it," Shoot sighed. "As long as your hair is showing, the mask won't do much."
Knuckle was very excited, "What?! You want me to give up my perfect crew cut? That's impossible! I'm really proud of this handsome hairstyle!"
"That's why I told you to forget it," Shoot said, rolling his eyes.
Germain looked at the three of them. Even though their time together was short, he felt their enthusiasm and liked them. He exchanged contact information with them.
They were companions worth keeping in touch with.
"Thank you for taking care of me during this time," Germain said, picking up his suitcase and shaking hands with each of them. "Hopefully, we'll meet again."
Morel and the others had new tasks awaiting them, and they had delayed their work just to take care of Germain.
"See you again if we're lucky," they replied one by one.
Germain nodded, picked up his suitcase, and turned to leave.
