"Yoo Ji-seok"
The man that saved Peter from that high ranking orc introduced himself as Yoo Ji-seok.He was in a formal gray suit,red tie,white shirt and with a black formal pants that was tied around with a black leather belt.The badge number he had given by the union was Twenty six.
"Hey kid,why did you sign up to this if youre only an E rank"
Peter was awestruck.How could he have known that he was only an E rank slayer?He just met him.
"H-how'd you know?",peter said stuttering,thinking that he had another stalker behind his back
"Your stance,your confidence,your eye movement,your breathing technique,your posture,your reaction on seeing the C rank orc,every part of you literally screams "Hi there,I am an E rank slayer!"
Peter felt belittled but it was true,he lacked combat experience,he lacked enough fighting knowledge,he was easily scared.He felt bad but realised that all the things Ji-seok said were true.
"So what rank are you"
"C",said Ji-seok in a nonchalant way.
Peter was not surprised at all,after all it was a B rank gate break so there were a lot of high ranking slayers.He thought this is a great opportunity to build connections to high ranking slayers.
"Hey kid,im here if you need me.You can stick around if you want and see how high ranking slayers fight.Maybe you'll learn something.",said Ji-seok.
Peter followed Ji-seok's advice and followed him.Peter did not fight at all till the mess of gate break was cleaned.He did do a lot of studying when Ji-seok was fighting though.Peter thought that it would be very beneficial to him.

5 hours later
Peter asked for Ji-seok's snapstagram id and thanked him.Ji-seok invited him to come at his place if he wants any advice and gave him his address.They both parted ways afterwards.
When peter was going to return the walkie-talkies and the badge.Peter saw a familiar face again.
It was Jihye.Covered in blood.
"What the-.How did you even get so much blood on yourself."
""My attribute.I fought along side three people.It turns out that i can manipulate any form of blood,not just mine.I can even use blood from gate monsters to make weapons and stuff.""
"A complete psychopathic attribute for a complete psychopath.How fitting!",Peter said extremely quietly
"huh,did you say something?"
"no"
***
Peter got home.jihye dropped him there with an extremely expensive car.peter was so careful that it took him five whole minutes just to open up the car door;making sure that he doesnt break anything.
"Thank you!"
Peter took a shower and went to bed.After all,he had blood on him too,not as much as jihye though.
***
Peter messaged jihye asking if he could borrow the arena for a day.Jihye agreed but only if she was allowed inside to watch.Peter now practically had a free pass to use the arena anytime he wants.
Peter then messaged Ji-seok for a friendly spar.
[Look,youre probably gonna end up dead.I have an E rank friend though and i want to train him too.I will train both of you.Do you mind sparring with him?]
Peter decided that he's not going to get direct personal training from a C rank any time soon.So he accepted.
