Chapter 2: Dungeon
Lee Baek Cheon, in excitement of his new found powers, immediately contacted the Korean Hunter Association.
Although he didn't inherit any memories from the original Lee Baek Cheon, he still knows how to get inside a gate legally with his knowledge from his past life.
He could just go inside a gate without any permission like those in other fics and get edgy and cool but that would be troublesome.
He may be a Hunter right now but his mentality is still that of a law-abiding citizen. But of course just because he follows the law doesn't mean he will let himself get abused by it.
If he deems that he is being exploited he will willingly fight them.
Now, the question is. How will he get inside a dungeon or as the Hunters called them, the Gate, legally?
Well that's simple, just use the contact of the Korean Hunter Association written behind your hunter license.
So after punching down the contact number of the Korean Hunter Association on his phone, he held it near his ears and waited for them to pick up.
The ring continued for about five seconds until something clicked and a voice came to answer.
[Goodmorning, Sir, you are contacting the Korean Hunter Association Landline, how may I help you?] The voice said on the other side of the phone. The voice was feminine so it was clear that she was a female.
"Hello, good morning. I'm Hunter Lee Baek Cheon, recently promoted to C-Rank Hunter. I was wondering if there are any vacant positions for a Gate Raid available?" Lee Baek said.
[Wait a minute, Sir, I'll go check out if there are any.] She said.
"Take your time." Lee Baek said politely.
After a minute she said.
[Fortunately, sir, there are vacant positions. The one being C-rank Gate near Gangnam Station. Would you like to take that position sir?]
"Of course!"
[Very well then sir, I just need some confirmation. Can you give me your Hunter License Number?]
"Definitely. It's 066-545-860." After saying his Hunter License Number she typed his number on to the computer to verify his identity. After verifying it she informed.
[Identity verified. Your schedule for the Gate Raid will be Tomorrow at 8:00am in Gangnam Station, your role will be Damage Dealer Swordsman. Is that correct?]
"I have recently made some changes in my role. So I want to be placed as a Tanker on the raid instead of a Damage Dealer Swordsman."
[I see. Very well, sir, we'll put you as a Tanker?]
"Yes, that is correct. Thank you."
[For further details we will send the full details in your email. See you tomorrow on the raid, Hunter Lee Baek.]
After that she put down the phone.
"Well, wasn't that quite easy." Since the manhwa didn't explore much details about these kinds of processes I thought it would be very crude but I'm surprised it was this easy.
Now that I have secured a spot in the Raid Team I need to prepare. I headed to my weapons room to take a look at my collection and see what I can bring with me.
Since one of my skills is Jack of All Trades Master of None, I am an all rounder when it comes to weapon specialty due to that I have a wide variety of weapons.
Which perfectly fits my Skill Class: Ruler of Steel. With my wide arsenal of cold steel weapons, I can control all of them regardless of their type with my skill.
Meaning I can have ten swords, ten blades, ten spears, ten daggers, ten shields, all around me to be commanded as I please if I can master this ability.
And I even have immortality. I am basically the perfect one-man army.
Just kidding. There's Sung Jin-woo with his ridiculous skills.
Now that guy would be something I need to face in the future as a Monarch. After leveling up and getting more powerful I need to find a way to build up my own army so that I can counter that guy.

Raid Day:
He doesn't want to humiliate himself inside the gate so before going to the gate Lee Baek Cheon made sure that he gets familiar with his newfound strength.
That was the easy part.
It was easy to get accustomed to it after all the muscle memory of this body was ingrained on every fiber of the body.
The hard part was going to Gangnam. Just a day ago he was not Korean, not knowing a single thing about them except for manhwa.
So for him, who was not a native of this country, the challenge was not about getting accustomed to his strength but how to commute.
But he persevered and after a grueling experience, he managed to get to Busan Station.
Immediately after getting out of the taxi, he saw a huge crowd of people surrounding a giant circle swirling with mystical power.
It was radiating mana, mana thick enough in the air to form mist.
And as a hunter, Lee Baek Cheon felt those mana tingle through his skin.
'A gate. It's really real. It's not a dream.' This was the final nail in the coffin for Lee Baek Cheon to accept that this is his new reality.
Dungeons are pockets of the chaos world that are connected to the human world through gates. They generally contain a horde of monsters, which are led by a boss, and remain open until the boss is killed. Once the boss is killed, the dungeon will stay open for about an hour before closing on its own.
It should be noted that in order to prevent the loss of human life as much as possible, a dungeon must be cleared within seven days. If it is not, then it will undergo what's called a "dungeon break", meaning that the monsters inside the dungeon will be able to cross over to the human world and attack the civilian population.
