Chapter 207
『 Whether it’s to help beginners or simply because it’s cumbersome, GM places no special restrictions on recruitment. So many people just press the season “Start” button first. If it’s not enough, they think they’ll recruit later. A common beginner’s mistake……
……Recruitment during the season drastically lowers the representative’s “credibility score.” The higher the league level, the worse it is. At major league level, mid-season recruitment signals that the off-season plan has failed. A low credibility score can lightly cause problems with front office and hunter conditioning, and in severe cases, teamwork……
……The only recommended method is to somehow endure using equipment and item advantage, then aim for a break or the off-season.』
________________________________________
Guild culture was changing under Lee Shin.
Wе̊.bṅŏ v̂ е̂l Е́ ň u m а̃
One expert named “communication” as this season’s keyword, saying that the one-sided relationship between guilds and fans was over. It had shifted to a culture that promoted interaction, communication, and synergy.
Based on what Lee Shin and Mir Guild demonstrated, other guilds had no choice, the expert added.

Yet, the guild representatives themselves found it difficult to immediately accept this change.
Why? No willpower? No capital? No experience?
None of it.
Surprisingly, most representatives were already aware of the change.
Е̌ n um а̇
Even after just half a season, they had been thoroughly beaten by Lee Shin. If they hadn’t realized it by now, it would be an intelligence issue.
So one could only ask again: why?
If asked, the representatives would probably have said:
“Because we have to put out the fire on our own doorstep first!”

“We have to handle the urgent matters immediately!”
Exactly.
We̊b̂ ńо̊ v̈ё l̄ Ë num.ā_
The representatives had plenty to say.
Was it just one or two things that Lee Shin had changed? No — he touched customs, conventions, rules, what is generally considered common sense, guild culture, and even strategies and tactics that directly affected battle power.
“Professor, the pace is too fast!!”
In this chaos, the representatives were busy solving the urgent problems first. Specifically, reinforcing their power to maintain their own “lifeline,” rather than worrying about culture or trivialities.
The first was this:
1. Rotation

“Ever experienced stamina issues? The second half has to be different. You need two teams running!”
“No time. Let’s just do as Mir Guild showed. Discard the old equipment and switch to the heavy, solid old-school style they used!”
The annihilation battle demonstrated by Lee Hye-jeong and Team 2.
The old-school strategy brought a successful return to the past.
Some experts even said that Mir Guild’s overwhelming performance in the latter half of the first half was all thanks to Lee Hye-jeong and Team 2.
“At the time of the second competition strategy, every guild was struggling with stamina. Even the Kirin Guild couldn’t escape this. The only guild that was free? Mir Guild.”
Ẁе̌b́n öṽ е̃ ĺ Е n̈ ǔm̂ а
“Why? Because of Lee Hye-jeong and Team 2!!”
Lee Hye-jeong and Team 2 handled more than one-third of the strategies during the first half.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Honestly, they performed so well that Mir Guild defended points while rising from 4th place to 3rd — a massive success.
During this process, the value of Lee Hye-jeong skyrocketed. Not only did she soothe potentially impatient young members, she led their growth. Many guilds envied her leadership.
It was around this time that unknown numbers frequently appeared on Lee Hye-jeong’s phone. Naturally, she even used these flirtations to benefit her younger members.
“Kids, what did I say? Don’t answer unknown numbers. Each of you is like a gem, don’t tarnish your value with foolishness.”
Е̌ n u m a.і̇d
Thus, each guild strengthened their second teams to participate in strategies, following Lee Shin’s rotation strategy.
But if there’s a first, there’s a second — and the second was usually far more difficult.
Indeed, it was. The second was even more exhausting.
2. Arena Matches
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“Ha, what about counter matches? Should we swap main members? If we don’t, we’ll end up like Kirin……”
“Ahh!! Kirin can’t even manage and got destroyed like this?! Then we’re just food! We have to change everything! Immediately!!”
W е_b̃n о̊ vе̂ l Е̌ň ü m а̊
Mir Guild had devastated the league with perfect rounds in the first half.
In the last round of the first half, they even destroyed the defending champion, Kirin Guild, proving their dominance.
The problem started here.
The long-standing dominance of Kirin had made guilds believe they were the standard. At this point, all guilds naturally aspired to be like Kirin.
But the Kirin-style approach collided with Mir Guild, failing completely. To survive, they had to switch to Mir’s approach.
“Don’t rely on star hunters like Kirin to carry you late game. Open fights proactively.”

“Volcano duo or whatever, the key is faster tempo, more intense pressure. It’s a combat-centered meta.”
Volcano operations, volcano duo, roaming strategy, etc.
Mir’s first option — commonly perceived as Hwarang and Mountain King wreaking havoc from the start, leaving opponents breathless.
But analysts and experts all agree: this is a play designed to the extreme.
“Hwarang’s intervention and Mountain King’s command are actually secondary. Top’s Baek Yeon-woo applies pressure. Mid’s Park Su-bin defends. AD carry Yu Rira must survive first.”
Naturally, this points to Lee Shin, who created this squad and strategy.
Е n̆ u.m̈ ǎ. і̂d̃
“Lee Shin must be a genius. Not only does he know individual abilities, strengths, weaknesses, even personalities.”
From one to ten, everything was perfect.

The squad, their movements, every detail — flawless. Just discovering three of them personally made Lee Shin seem almost inhuman.
The problem was……
“Do we have to do this……?”
“Where do we even start?”
Е̄_n̂um̌ӑ_.i d̃
“Ha…….”
“Uh, um……”
Should they find an active support like Hwarang first?
Or a command-type jungler like Mountain King?

Or a top lane who never stops attacking, an indestructible mid, or an AD carry who survives to carry?
At this point, wouldn’t it be faster to just be reborn as Lee Shin?

Questions kept multiplying.
Then, like salvation, an echo reached them.

[ MVP Destroyer, Lee Shin mentioned: “Are you watching, Shin?” ]
[ Amazing Mats Time unstoppable! ]
The answer lay across the Pacific, in America.

“Eureka! Right, Lee Shin did that in America!”
“If Mir Guild struggles, we can compromise like that and overlay our guild’s color!”
If Mir Guild was the perfect realization of Lee Shin’s ideal, Mats Guild was the compromise version.
Such a compromise allowed current guilds to change without excessive loss.
“No time. Draw up the recruitment list.”
“Scouting team, contact the candidates immediately.”

The phone rang like crazy.
And soon, a voice worn thin with fatigue followed.

“Yes, this is the Secretariat. For the trade between [Haemu Guild] and [Asakura Guild], please send the contract by fax. As for overseas recruitment documents…”
“We just received the contract. The Secretariat confirms that the rental agreement between [Baekgeom Guild] and [Akmyo Guild] has been completed. Entry changes will proceed immediately…”
“That’s [Taeyang Guild], right? I checked, and since Russia is in civil war, additional attached documents and certification are required. Yes, yes, if you send them immediately, entry registration will proceed…”
Even though recruitment is free, a system is necessary.
A department that registers entries to protect the rights of Hunters and recognizes guild ownership.
This place, which helps maintain a healthy league ecosystem, was the Secretariat’s Guild Management Department.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Because of this role, the Guild Management Department is usually idle except during the off-season when full-scale recruitment happens, at which point they tighten the reins.
But this year, things had been unusual since the breaking season began.
‘This is insane, when will it end.’
‘It’s at least five times more than last year.’
‘It’s historic. Lee Shin’s recruitment storm. He wasn’t just talking big…’
Among them was the fresh recruit Kim Yeonah, who had joined the management department a month ago.
Е́ n̊u̇ m̆ а
The bright, youthful face that had served as the department’s “vitamin” now appeared fatigued—a change that came with the start of the breaking season.
“Haah…”

She rubbed her dark-circled eyes and looked at the fax.
Scratching her uneasy head from last night’s all-nighter, she examined the contract, tilted her head, and picked up the phone.
“Hello, this is the recruitment team of [Haemu Guild], right? This is the Secretariat. We just received the fax, but some information seems different. You traded with [Asakura Guild], correct? Then why is there another name in the middle?”
───!
Е ñ ům_а̀
“Yes, yes, we’ve spoken with the Hunter. The documents are perfect.”
───!!
“Hmm, understood. We will approve it. The Secretariat confirms that the trade between [Haemu Guild] and [Asakura Guild] has been completed…”
After finishing entry registration, Kim Yeonah stretched. A hand tapped her shoulder, and she turned to see a woman in similar attire standing there.

“Team Leader Ju!”
“Follow me, newbie. Let’s get some fresh air and grab a meal.”

Soon, the two were on the rooftop.
The team leader had an e-cigarette in her mouth and looked at Kim Yeonah with a mix of pity and amusement.
“Geez, look at your face. Did you even wash your hair?”
“Sniff sniff, does it smell?”
“No, it’s fragrant. Don’t sniff so much. I’m tearing up because I feel sorry for you. Tch, no hallway manners. Usually the breaking season isn’t this busy.”
“Hehehe…but it’s fun.”

Many who applied to the Secretariat had once dreamed of becoming Hunters. Kim Yeonah was one of them, and she was very satisfied with the ability to know guild entries as quickly as possible—just like now.
“Top-tier guilds aren’t top-tier for nothing. In just a few days, they’ve already reinforced two teams. They spend money like water—it’s chilling!”
“Money isn’t everything, but in this league, it almost is.”
“Other than that, [Champion Guild] is good. Their scouting team is skilled. They pick value-for-money Hunters perfectly.”
“Right, the Champion Guild scouting team is very competent.”
“And [Haemu Guild]?”
Ẅēb̀ňŏ_ṽе l Е n̊u m ǎ
“A bit suspicious, right?”
“Oh? How did you know?”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“They have many connections with Japan. Japanese Hunter contracts are famously tricky—something like third-party arrangements, that kind of thing.”
“Oh…I see.”
Kim Yeonah nodded vigorously, and the team leader smiled behind the smoke of her e-cigarette.
After all, she, like Kim Yeonah, had joined the Secretariat because she liked the league.

“The key in this recruitment market will be competitive raid matches.”
“Oh? I think so too!”
“A lot of tanks went on the market, right?”
“Yes, yes! I handled six cases today, and four of them were tanks. They were all traditional-style tanks.”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Tanks with good bases and offensive potential.
Tanks are the core of strategy teams, and managing them meant fundamentally changing the team’s composition.
Ën̂ům̈ á
“You mean they’re rebuilding the raid team? Hmm, is this retooling?”
“Since they’re keeping the core, yes, it’s retooling!”
Retooling it’s a process to achieve rapid results through short-term measures while protecting core resources.
And both were certain this process pointed to [Mir Guild].
“The trend will be pure tanks. Like how [Mir Guild] uses Kang Malsuk or the Double Shield Duo.”
“Top-tier guilds are changing first. The lower-tier guilds will naturally follow.”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Slow but sturdy tanks. Full-plate armored fortresses.
Healers and melee DPS as sub-tanks, ranged DPS and supports on the flanks in a three-point breakthrough formation.
This was the new formation proposed by [Mir Guild].
“They can hunt far more monsters than the traditional three-line formation. The downside is slightly slower speed and stability.”
“No problem for [Mir Guild]. The Mountain King’s leadership offsets those weaknesses.”
However, there was a problem.
Ŵ e b n̈о̃ vе l Е̇ nǔ ṁ а̃
Traditional light armor, fast movement, and versatile tanks couldn’t achieve this—it was simply too costly.
So guilds split into two factions, called by the management department as ‘Mir faction’ and ‘Kirin faction.’

“The Mir faction acknowledged [Mir Guild]’s dominance and boldly invested.”
“Many mid-to-upper tier guilds follow suit. It costs a lot.”
“The Kirin faction, on the other hand, imitates Kirin while only changing key members.”
“Even though we’re colleagues, let’s be honest—they’re openly planning monster herding in competitive matches.”
Е.n̊ ümа .і̂ d
“Ugh! I can hardly wait. Am I overreacting if I say I’m already excited for the Kirin vs. Mir competitive matches?”
“Yes, overreacting.”
Raid matches, confrontations, competitive raid matches.
Each method requires careful calculation. Kim Yeonah thought this variety was what made the league fascinating. Perhaps that’s why, the more she thought about it, the more she admired Lee Shin.

“Representative Lee Shin. He’s truly amazing.”
“Why do you think so?”
Е̃n̆ ũ m ӓ
“After all, he’s the one who brought the winds of change. You said it earlier too, Team Leader—there’s never been such active recruitment during the breaking season.”
“Indeed, Lee Shin is something else.”
Without [Mir Guild] and Lee Shin, the league would have repeated the same year.
From culture to strategy, they enrich and make the league appealing. How could that not be impressive?
“So I’m curious.”
Despite being the one to spark change, [Mir Guild] had registered 0 entries with the Secretariat.

In fact, they were the only guild with no entry changes.
“What is Lee Shin thinking?”

They were [Mir Guild] members.
