34. Awakening Problems
Time passes quickly and Indra finally graduates from High school. It's been almost a year and a half since Gates started appearing all over the world. Indra has been training hard and he always raised his level.

He has reached level 133 after raiding a lot of dungeons. With the help of the device to measure the magic power of the Gates that the Hunter Bureau in Bali got a few months ago, it became easier for him to find and raid A-Rank dungeons. That's why he could raise his level nicely.
Indonesia also finally has a Magic Power Measurement device to rank their hunters. But they still only have 1. The ones used to check the Gates' magic power can be used to check awakeners' magic power too, but it's not accurate because the materials' qualities are different.
The ones used for Gates were made of normal A-Rank monsters while the ones used for Hunters were made of A-Rank bosses, which are S-Rank monsters. That's why the accuracy is different and even the sizes are different.
Now, to decide awakeners' ranks, they need to use the ones used for Gates first. But not every city has it yet because the production takes time and only the USA can produce it now. So they need to group some cities to use the same devices.
The device for Gates' is used by 5 or 6 cities. But the device for hunters is just 1 for every province. So all awakeners need to go to their province's capital city to check their ranks. The Hunter Bureau of their cities will prepare transportation every day to send the awakeners, so they just need to have free time.
After using the lower quality device in their provinces, those who received ranks A & S will be sent to Jakarta, the Capital city of Indonesia. There, they will use the high-quality device made of an A-Rank Boss's core that has a more accurate reading.
Sometimes, those who were measured as A or S-Rank in the province turned out to be of lower ranks. It's rare for an A-Rank to be a B-Rank, but they often find an S-Rank to be just an A-Rank. Though it means their magic power is close to S-Rankers.
Another big thing that changed is the creation of Guilds. Hunters started forming Guilds to raid dungeons. So now Hunter Bureau only needs to measure the Gates' magic power and raid the low level Gates that the Guilds don't buy because they prefer buying at least C-Rank Gates.
High-rank hunters mostly join Guilds while low-rank Hunters mostly join Hunter Bureau. It's the same in other countries because Guilds aim for profits. High-rank Gates are more dangerous, but they are more profitable, so Guilds prefer them.
Right now, Indonesia only has 2 Guilds led by S-Rank Hunters. They still only have 2 S-Rankers among all their awakeners. But they have a lot of A-Rankers, so they still can handle A-Rank Gates by sending a lot of A-Rankers.
The 2 S-Rankers' Guilds are Taring Macan Guild and Raja Guild. They are located in Jakarta and Yogyakarta, so their territories don't overlap. It's actually the Hunter Bureau's policy for S-Rankers to make Guilds in different provinces so they can always respond when something like a high-rank dungeon break happens.
Luckily, these 2 S-Rankers were from different provinces to begin with, so they don't need to move from their hometown. But that policy is a problem for Indra. He has planned to measure his magic power and become a Hunter, after all.
The problem is when his sister awakens, she will be an S-Rank too. Then their province will have 2 S-Rankers, so one of them will need to go to another province. He already planned to build a Guild and obviously he'll recruit his sister, but now it will be difficult.
'Sigh, let's think about it when she awakens. I might have become a National Level hunter by then and I'm sure I can pull some strings then.'
But either it's his bad luck or his sister's good luck, she actually awakens a week after Indra's graduation. He plans to check his awakening in a few days, but his sister actually awakens now. This gives him another headache.
"Are you really awakened?"
"That's right, dad. I can feel the mysterious power in my body. Also, I somehow suddenly know what my abilities are and I know how to use them."
His sister looks excited, but it's not the case for their parents & Indra. They are worried about her because once she becomes a Hunter, she'll be in danger as she hunts monsters. Only Rama who is still too young to understand that being a hunter is dangerous gets happy with Dewi's awakening.
"Dad, mom, actually, I also awakened my power last night."
""WHAT?!""
Indra decides to announce it to his family now. It's faster than his plan, but he can't let his sister go alone to check her rank. She will be Indonesia's 1st female hunter, so obviously she will get a lot of attention.
Not to mention, she is actually a beauty herself, so it will attract even more attention. It's not him being biased to his own family, but because he already lived 2 times, he can judge that his family members are good-looking, especially his mom and sister.
His sudden announcement obviously surprises everyone because not only 1, they have 2 people awakened at the same time in their family. Well, it's actually not that strange because there was a case where a whole family awakened in a week. It happens in another country though.
Alexander and Ayu are having a headache now while their youngest, Rama is excited knowing his big sister & big brother have awakened. For him, Hunters are just cool people who have super powers like superheroes, after all, and now his siblings will be those superheroes too.
"Sigh, so what are you 2 planning for now?"
"Well, the 1st thing to do is checking our rank in the Hunter Bureau. We can only know how strong we are after doing that, after all. In my opinion, we can only decide what to do once we know how strong we are."
"Indra is right. I still don't know what to do too, so it's better to check my rank before deciding what to do next."
"But you need to plan what to do after that from now. What will you do if you get low or high ranks. That way, you won't be confused to decide your future once you know your ranks."
"Hmm, well, if I get a D or E-Rank, then I won't be a hunter. It will be too dangerous raiding dungeons with such low power. I will just go to college instead. If I get at least a B-Rank, then I will be a hunter. The problem is C-Rank. I'm still not sure what to do because personally, I think C-Rank is still too weak to raid profitable dungeons but too strong to not be a hunter."
"Dewi, Indra, what if you join the Hunter Bureau if you get at least C-Rank?"
"Eh? You want us to join the Hunter Bureau, mom?"
"No, I don't want to. I don't want to do office work. Indra is smart, so he can do that, but I am only good at physical activities."
"Well, I heard from my friend that if an awakener joins the Hunter Bureau, they will be assigned with field jobs like supervising hunters or Gates. They don't do office work that often."
"Then how about this? We will be hunters if we get A or S-Rank and join the Hunter Bureau if we get C or B-Rank. I will go to college if I get E or D-Rank. What about you sis?"
"Well, I am still a college student, so nothing will change if I get D or E-Rank I guess."
Alexander and Ayu look at each other before sighing.
"Alright, your dad and I agree with that. But we want you to still go to college no matter your rank, Indra. As for you, Dewi, you need to graduate from college no matter what your rank is."
"Sure, mom."
"You know I can't quit now. I already started writing my thesis, so it will be a waste if I quit."
"Good. No matter what you'll do in the future, education is still very important."
They finally solved this problem. Now, Indra needs to be ready to handle the problems that are about to come.
