The real reason for some hunters retiring, explained

Summary

Hunters in Solo department Retire for valid reasons such as seeking financial stability and healing traumors.
Retirement may be due to serious injuries or trauma from dungeons, which affects a hunter's ability to fight.
Noteworthy hunters like my Byung-Gu, JOO-hee and chairman go pistol-hee returned early for various personal reasons.

Every hunter in Solo department Has the right to retire, as officials who spend half of their lifetime working in different industries. It is a natural result, especially for the hunters who want to leave the dungeons before it is too late. Sung Jin-Woo could also retire if he wanted to, but because of the enormous power he has and the responsibility on his shoulders it seems unlikely. Can you imagine a hunter of Jin-Woo's level retiring at this point in Solo department? Probably not.

Pension is perhaps the last thing that will think about for most hunters, especially those with higher rank. But for low-level hunters, such as D and e-rankers, it will not be a surprise if they throw in the towel early and choose to live an ordinary life. At the end of the day, it is safer for these hunters to work under normal circumstances than to risk their lives killing monsters over and over again.

Shadow Exchange is one of the most useful abilities in Sung Jin-Woo in solo leveling, but how does it work?

Why do hunters retire in solo niveness?

They have different valid reasons

To leave or stay? Choosing an answer is a difficult decision, especially for hunters who want financial stability, fame and significant connection despite their lack of exceptional skills and talents. However, there will be a point when hunters are not given an opportunity to choose; They simply have to leave and abandon the profession that pays them enough money to cover their expenses. This, together with a combination of factors, contributes to a hunter's tough decision to go away from the gates and never look back again.

Pension due to serious injuries

It is not uncommon for hunters to retire, even at such an early age, due to serious injuries. Losing an arm or one of their legs from Dungeon Raids can put a huge fee on the hunter's body, despite the heals in standby. Injuries leading to permanent disabilities is another problem because hunters will not be able to fight with their full strength and risk their lives even more. These hunters must also be more dependent on their co -hunters and put their lives at greater risk.

Pension because of severe trauma

Dungeons can be a playground for high -skilled hunters, but for lower ranks it is the other way around. It is a frightening and unforgiving place, where hunters witness countless tragic deaths in the hands of the magical animals. Those hunters who do not have a strong will to survive are likely to have nightmares that will haunt them as long as they continue to attack dungeons. Repeated exposure to life or death situations is no joke, leading to mental degradations that forces a hunter to retire.

Pension because of old age

A hunter in his premiere differs greatly from an aging hunter, although it is common for a hunter to be in stone at the moment they wake up. Age is still a huge factor in a person's performance, whether they are a hunter or not, especially affects their speed, versatility and strength. In other words, their aging bodies could not handle the strength they once had ease. Because of this, those who have been in the business for quite some time eventually choose to sit back and let the next generation continue the fight.

Notable hunters who retired early

Leaving the battlefield is tough

My Byung-Gu is an S-rank healer who retired after the third Jeju Island Raid. His reason is the trauma caused by Eunseok's death. While Byung-Gu eventually comes out of retirement and joins Baek Yoon-Ho in the fourth raid, he already had plans to become an official, especially a history professor, rather than staying on the battlefield as a hunter.

Another remarkable character is JOO-hee, the compassionate B-Rank healer who becomes friends with Jin-Woo after participating in RAID together. Instead of joining B-Rank or C-Rank Raid parties, JOO-hee prefers to join a D-Rank or E-Rank Party because of her psychological problems. She could not handle fear well, and it did not help that she was thrown into a double dungeon where she witnessed that her comrades tragically die after each other. She survived the incident but chose to return to her hometown rather than continue her hunting career.

“I am retiring.”-Lee Joo-hee to Sung Jin-Woo

Chairman Go Gun-Hee for the Hunting Association also retired early because of his old age. He has tremendous strength, but his body can no longer handle it. Despite his desire to go back to the dungeon and raid monster with Jin-Woo, it will not be possible for his body anymore. Fortunately, he became chairman of the Hunting Association, with the important job to monitor the gates and hunters in South Korea.

Unlike Sung Jin-Woo, whose powers exceed them by human understanding, hunters in Solo departmentWhatever rank, should consider pension as part of their profession as early as possible. It is necessary to weigh the benefits and the risks that come with the job, as there is nothing to say when an unfortunate situation will force them to make the toughest decision in their lives.
