Starting as an inventor from Hunter x Hunter

"Even with special exceptions, candidates must at least meet the requirements of a two-star hunter."

Mr. Beanface said truthfully, "The Hunter Association has very strict requirements regarding star ratings."

"After all, this concerns the most fundamental merit system of the entire Hunter Association."

"As long as the star system exists, there will be many professional hunters who will strive to achieve great feats in order to increase their star rating."

Mr. Bean Man was afraid that Mog might have other ideas and didn't understand the situation, so he spoke to him carefully.

"So, I really need to raise my star rating?"

Mog wasn't surprised; he had anticipated this.

"What are the special conditions for allowing such an exception?"

The Samsung Hunter is currently a bit unlikely.

Of course, this is unlikely to refer to seniority and experience.

Currently, a three-star hunter must not only have made outstanding contributions, but also have a certain influence within the association.

Mog has only just obtained his hunter license, so it's unrealistic for him to expect to reach the highest star rating in one fell swoop.

The requirements for the other one-star and two-star hunters are simpler.

A one-star hunter is a hunter who has achieved success in a certain field and left behind great achievements.

Two-star hunters who have achieved great success or made significant contributions in several fields.

Three-star hunter... There are no more than ten people in the world who hold this title; in other words, it is the highest-ranking hunter title.

This is extremely rare!!

The absolute requirement to obtain the Samsung Hunter title is to complete several historic new discoveries or create world-class feats.

For the time being, Mog still felt it was best not to be too flashy or conspicuous.

For him, a two-star hunter is enough.

Moreover, even Kim Freecss didn't apply for the three-star hunter rank.

Although he explained that he had always found the application process for the Samsung Hunter too troublesome, he had never applied.

However, in theory, the higher the star rating, the greater the authority and influence one should gain.

As a result, Kim Freecss didn't even bother to apply for that higher star rating.

Either it's unnecessary, or a two-star hunter is already sufficient for Gold Freecss.

Alternatively, there might be some pitfalls or conditions that are unacceptable to Gold Freecss after upgrading to a three-star hunter.

For example, it's about making one's own industries or personal information more transparent.

Of course, this might not mean much to professional hunters like Porter, Chidor, and Pariston, who are focused on the development of the Hunter Association.

However, this wouldn't be a good fit for someone like Kim Freecss, who has been quietly building his business around the world and doing quite well.

Mog understands and respects the Hunter Association's star system; there must be a reason why it requires and establishes it.

However, Mogg also trusted Kim Freecss's judgment and choices.

After all, he is currently the smartest person known in the Hunter world.

Yes, this "smartness" refers to IQ, not EQ.

So, forget about the Samsung Hunter or anything like that~~~

"Special conditions for exceptions..."

Mr. Beanman glanced at Chairman Netero again: "It requires the approval of the Hunter Association's chairman, who is Chairman Netero."

Mog: "~~~~~~"

He silently turned his head and looked at Niterói.

The latter was stroking his beard with a smile, head held high, facing Mog with an air of "That's right, I do have that much authority."

So, you see...

Mog slowly shook his head: "The president of the Hunter Association does indeed have a great deal of authority."

But he was also looking forward to the authority granted to the vice president.

As the second-highest position in the Hunter Association after the chairman, it's unclear what kind of power he wields.

"No wonder, becoming the vice president requires a lot of help from President Netero."

"What if~~~"

Mog suddenly had a thought: "What conditions need to be met to become the next president of the Hunter Association?"

The requirements for vice president are already this stringent, so what would it be like to become president?

"Uh……"

Mr. Bean was stumped by this question.

He glanced at Chairman Netero again, and seeing that he showed no emotion, he swallowed hard.

"If you want to become the new president, there is only one condition you need to meet."

Mr. Bean Man said cautiously, "Then we will follow the selection criteria left by the previous chairman."

So, it still comes down to the former president's word?

This is normal, if they are the next generation of talents favored by the previous chairman and capable of succeeding him.

Then we only need to specify the rules based on the special conditions that the next generation of president will have.

That is, the so-called... Radish Hill.

"I understand~~~"

Mog nodded in understanding.

He also understood why, in the original storyline, after Chairman Netero passed away...

There were no conditions during the election process.

Even someone like Leorio, who had only been a professional hunter for a year and had no achievements to speak of, could be a strong candidate.

The election of the chairman was conducted entirely in accordance with Netero's last wishes.

That is, it is being implemented according to the selection criteria he left behind.

This is essentially in accordance with the selection criteria left by the previous president.

In other words...

Mog clarified all three rules and finally came to the following conclusion:

"Right now, all I need to do is fulfill the requirements for becoming a two-star hunter, right?"

The first two requirements and conditions can be basically met simply by Chairman Netero's intervention.

The only hard requirement is the last one.

Even with Chairman Netero's intervention, one still needs to reach the level of a two-star hunter on their own.

"Theoretically speaking, that's how it is."

Mr. Bean Man nodded.

"A two-star hunter, huh~~~"

Mog pondered the specific conditions.

It requires achieving great success or making significant contributions in several fields.

"Then what about my previous research on the breeding methods of two-headed wolves, and the establishment of the [Hunter Chat Website]? Would those be considered achievements?"

One is related to biology, and the other is related to online life.

This already represents a tremendous success and outstanding contribution in several fields.

"These are indeed achievements, but..."

Mr. Beanman truthfully stated, "Because these things were all done before you became a professional hunter."

"So in principle, it doesn't count towards your hunter career."

"All the contributions and achievements I have made have started from the moment I obtained my hunter's license."

"If you insist on including it in your own achievements, that's fine, but..."

Mr. Bean Man hesitated for a moment.

"But if we do that, V5 definitely won't be able to make an exception."

Netero spoke first: "The Hunter Association needs to elect a vice president, and the final result will definitely be reported to V5."

"My advice is that you should wait until you get your hunter license before you start accumulating merits again."

"In that case, when I go to V5 to communicate, I can use the fact that you achieved so many merits before becoming a professional hunter, but they were not counted as part of the calculations, as a breakthrough point to gain more recognition."

Again.

The Hunter Association's direct superiors are the world's top organizations.

Ultimately, the decision rests with them.

However, with Chairman Netero mediating, there shouldn't be any major problems.

"Okay, I know."

Mog had no objections: "It's just a two-star hunter, I'll do it as quickly as possible."

"Hehehe, a two-star hunter is nothing special?"

Chairman Netero smiled and said, "Then I'll be watching closely."

"Once you achieve the two-star hunter rank, I will immediately begin working on your application for the vice president position."

"No problem~"

Mog smiled and said, "President Netero, you will definitely get a vice president who perfectly matches your imagination and expectations."

"You'll see how right your choice was, and that losing this test was absolutely worthwhile!"
