EPISODE 49 – A SHARPENED BLADE
For an entire month, Kim Do-hyun had buried himself in training with a focus that bordered on obsession. Every single hour of every single day had been orchestrated with precision—no wasted steps, no unearned breaks, no excuse strong enough to interrupt his schedule. His clones weren't just sparring anymore; they had evolved into elite soldiers under a single mind. While most Hunters burned out trying to balance muscle memory, theory, and field instincts, Do-hyun had taken the unorthodox route of splitting those burdens across three tireless copies of himself. A solution so effective, it almost felt like cheating.
