SSS-Rank Awakening: My Talent Multiplies Everything novel Chapter 130

Chapter 130: Rank Reassessment.

A while later, the call finally came to an end.

Kael placed his phone back on the bedside table before stretching his arms over his head. The morning sunlight poured through the curtains, bathing the room in a warm glow as he let out a quiet yawn.

After the stretch he stood up and left his room.

The aroma of breakfast greeted him almost immediately.

Inside the kitchen, Lyra was already busy placing food onto the table. Upon noticing him, she simply gestured toward the empty chair opposite her.

"Perfect timing."

Kael smiled before taking his seat.

"I was beginning to think you’d eat everything before I got here."

Lyra looked at him as though he had just insulted her.

"I considered it."

"But then I remembered I’d probably have to explain to Mom why her precious son starved to death."

Kael chuckled.

"How thoughtful."

The two quietly ate breakfast while exchanging the occasional joke. Moments like these had gradually become a daily occurrence ever since life settled down a little.

Once they finished eating, Lyra placed her spoon down before looking toward him.

"So..."

"What’s the plan today?"

Kael leaned back slightly.

"I’m heading to the Hunter Association."

Lyra blinked.

"What for?"

"I’ve been putting off my Hunter Rank reassessment for long enough."

The moment those words left his mouth, Lyra couldn’t help laughing.

"You don’t say."

"There were times I genuinely looked at the front door expecting the Association’s disciplinary committee to burst in and drag you away in handcuffs."

Kael rolled his eyes.

"Don’t exaggerate."

"Am I?"

Lyra folded her arms.

"They were even nice enough to send an official representative to remind you."

"And then you proceeded to ignore them for days."

"If that isn’t peak rage baiting, I honestly don’t know what is."

"..."

For once, Kael couldn’t immediately come up with a comeback.

Because...

She wasn’t exactly wrong.

The Hunter Association had indeed contacted him some time ago regarding a reassessment.

To be honest, he had expected it.

After displaying strength comparable to an S-Rank Hunter inside the Verdant World Rift, it would’ve been stranger if they hadn’t come looking for him.

Although...

They had taken longer than he expected.

As for getting arrested...

Kael wasn’t worried in the slightest.

Ordinarily, deliberately concealing one’s true Hunter Rank while operating under a lower or higher classification was considered a serious violation of Association regulations.

Depending on the circumstances, punishments ranged from heavy fines to temporary suspension of Hunter privileges.

However...

Those rules were primarily aimed at ordinary Hunters.

S-Rank Hunters existed in an entirely different category.

Whether anyone liked it or not, exceptional strength naturally came with exceptional treatment.

The fact that the Association had politely sent a representative to remind him instead of issuing warnings or disciplinary notices was already proof enough.

Not to mention...

He had awakened barely a short while before demonstrating strength that rivaled an S-Rank.

Anyone with common sense could tell there was something unusual about him.

The Association wasn’t stupid.

Rather than offending someone with that kind of potential over a technicality, they would much rather maintain a good relationship.

Naturally...

Kael wasn’t about to explain all of that to Lyra.

She would probably just accuse him of being arrogant again.

Lately, she had developed a strange habit of calling him narcissistic whenever he made perfectly reasonable observations about himself. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Him?

Arrogant?
