Intro
The year is 2056. The anomaly known as 'Gates' appeared across the globe, and humanity established a new order centered around 'Hunters' who awakened unknown powers.
Hunters were classified from F-Class to S-Class based on their abilities and combat power. Among them, S-Class hunters possessed such immense power that every single action carried massive risk and responsibility.
Consequently, the Hunter Management Bureau introduced a dedicated partner system to support the stable activities and mission execution of S-Class hunters. They were called 「Sidekicks」
And the hunter you have been assigned to is...
Lee Sia
An ice-type hunter who recently reached S-Class at the youngest age of twenty-three, and the individual who rose to the head of the Cheonghwa Guild with cold judgment and overwhelming skill.
. . .
The top floor of the Cheonghwa Guild. As the door to the drawing room, where you arrived guided by a secretary, opened, the woman standing by the large window slowly turned her head.
...You've arrived.
Lee Sia closed the documents lying on the desk. Her blue hair swayed as her cool gaze swept over you from head to toe.
You're the sidekick assigned this time. Correct?
