-1 Volume 4

Currently, there are a total of four skills that Jung Daesik can purchase.

It was powerful power, speed, a steel body, and strengthening the five senses.

The ‘strong fist’ was a fist that temporarily increased strength.

My strength is tripled for an instant, and there is a 30% chance of a critical burst, emitting ten times the attack power.

It looked ignorant because it only strengthened the power, but it seemed the most useful in the battle situation with monsters.

Daum’s ‘speed’ was literally a technique that made the body move faster.

Momentary movements such as striking forward or falling backward were possible.

When the skill is activated, agility is tripled for 3 seconds.

This also seemed useful because it would prevent injuries or fatal injuries in a crisis situation even if there is nothing wrong with it.

‘Steel Body’ was a skill that increased the durability of the body.

If strong power or haste is an active skill that requires shouting a starting word, the steel body has the effect of reducing the enemy’s attack power by 10% as a passive skill.

Should I say that it increases defense?

‘Enhance the five senses’ was the ability to strengthen the senses of touch, sight, hearing, taste, and smell for one minute.

This seemed to be helpful in detecting dangerous situations in advance or guessing the enemy’s movements when searching.

“Entropy, what’s the difference between the strengthening skills I have and these skills?”

Entropy gave a simple and clear answer to Jung Daesik’s question while looking through the list of technologies.

“Okay. So, you mean that I can use these skills and my enhancement skills by overlapping?”

“If you upgrade the shop, better skills will come out?”

Jung Daesik nodded his head, saying he seems to know how the story goes.

However, the most important thing was the price.

No matter how good the technology was, it was useless to the extent that it was impossible to purchase and use it.

In order to even see the good technology, I had to pay an additional price to upgrade the shop.

So this is money, that is money, and it is all money.

‘It starts with money and ends with money.’

Jung Daesik clicked his tongue as he recalled the voice he had heard in the divine space.

‘Who is not the god of greed?’

The price of technology that Jung Daesik can buy is 20 million won each.

Even if it was cheaper than the ability, it was also expensive.

‘When it comes to technology, it’s not something I see with my eyes and it’s not something that stays in my hands, right? It’s just that the list increases by one in the skill window I have, and I have to spend tens of thousands of won each.’

To be honest, I was nervous and couldn’t pay for it.

‘Oh, no. Just because there is something you can buy doesn’t mean you have to buy it all. Be careful.’

He had very little money, so he couldn’t afford to spend wisely.

I had to spend the money according to the direction I wanted to go forward and the purpose of the work I had to do.Jung Daesik was in trouble as his beard started to grow and he touched his ragged chin.

He said, ‘Once I became an Awoken and gained my superpowers, I had to do the Hunter job. Even though it is absurd to say that his ability is sage, becoming a hunter is something that he was eagerly waiting for.’

There was only one reason why Jung Daesik was envious of Hunter and wanted to become an Awakened.

right money!

it’s only money

‘If you become a hunter and hunt in a dungeon, you can touch an incomparable amount of money with a porter. You can just beat a slime for a few million won. This is it! But if you go into the dungeon without thinking, it’s perfect for a screaming death. Basically, I need to have a weapon to protect me. Even if it’s cheap.’

Jung Daesik mobilized all the knowledge he had picked up while following the hunters as a porter.

‘That means you have to buy a weapon. I can’t buy anything either. Even if cancer is cheap, the weapons used by the Awakened are many and expensive.’

A reference point was needed to make the most optimal choice.

Jung Daesik judged that criterion to be a position.

‘It’s impossible for a beginner like me to enter the dungeon alone. You have to team up with anyone. To do that, I need to decide on a position that is right for me. So you have to buy a weapon suitable for it.’

Jung Daesik reminded himself that his class was Ganghwa.

‘What is the right position for the Ganghwa field?’

Jung Daesik remembered the hunters he had been following all along.

He often called the raid team the hunters form to hunt monsters.

Within the raid, each role is divided, and that is the position.

‘Ganghwa system, Ganghwa plane tanker is the first thing that comes to mind.’

The tank serves as a substitute for the team members or raid members, also called party members, to deal with monster attacks.

Therefore, defense and stamina were important, so the reinforcement system was considered appropriate.

But Jung Daesik, deep in thought, soon shook his head inwardly.

‘No, tanks are unreasonable. Tanks need psychic abilities as well. You have to fix the monster to yourself to buy time for the dealer.’

The ability to attract the attention of monsters is one of the most important abilities for a tank.

That’s called ‘turn off aggro’ in slang.

Although monsters differ according to their type, they are clearly intelligent creatures.

That is to say, I am not stupid.

Therefore, there is no way to focus on tanks that are not well attacked, leaving other enemies to attack them.

So the tank had to have the talent to get the monster’s attention in some way.

So, it was unreasonable to play the role of a tank with just one reinforcement-based ability.

‘A secondary position that requires healing ability or buffer ability is of course unreasonable.’

Auxiliary positions, which are classified as healers and buffers, literally help others, so they do not fight directly in the front.

Thanks to this, it can be said that it is relatively safe compared to other positions.

But in a way, it was also the most vulnerable position.

They lacked fighting skills, making it difficult to sustain life when the situation worsened.

It was terrifying because I had to entrust my life to other people.

Of course, it was also a position that had nothing to do with Jung Daesik, a strongman.

‘Well, that’s the dealer.’

The so-called striker, the dealer, is divided into a short-distance striker ‘close deal’ and a long-distance striker ‘one deal’.

‘Of course, it’s unreasonable to have to fight directly against a monster with just one enhancement ability. If so, the only remaining option is the one. It’s a long-distance dealer……’

Jung Daesik was troubled.

He has been observing while walking around the dungeon.

Dealers were quite common compared to tanks, healers, and buffers.

It’s probably because he’s in a position where he fights monsters, so he doesn’t need any special abilities.

So, he was treated as the second lowest in the dungeon after the porter.

If the porter is a commoner, then the dealer is a commoner?

Even at such a dealer, the grades are divided, but the situation of the local dealer was slightly better.

Geun-Dil is recognized for his bravery by going forward and directly dealing with monsters.

On the other hand, I had a strong impression that the one-deal was a role that helped me with a deal from a distance.

He often gets glared at the dealer for taking care of himself in a safe place.

Because of that wind, Wondil was not easy to find an engineering college.

There was no easy way to win a fight in a difficult situation.

‘In the end, the answer is suljapat.’

Suljapat is a slang term for a group of dealers gathered together.

It refers to a party in which such dealers go to slaughter lower-level monsters in order to gain experience, to earn money, or to think that it is better than playing.

There are only dealers, so there is no aggro management at all, and there is no backup.

But, of course, there was little money.

‘It’s still better than a porter.’

No matter how much you say the sledgehammer doesn’t do much, it’s probably better than the porter’s pay.

Judging from the suffering, the sledgehammer is much better than the porter.

‘Yeah, I’d rather earn more than a porter, well. Let’s think realistically, realistically.’

You don’t have to fight monsters to die as a hunter.

After all, if the goal is money, you have to hunt while saving yourself in moderation.

Thinking about it, Wondil and Suljapot didn’t look bad either.

No, it was perfect for someone who doesn’t have big ambitions like Jung Daesik.

‘It will take some time, but if you keep going, you will be able to buy a building. Yep, that’s the goal. First of all, I need to purchase a weapon.’

Jung Daesik tried to figure out in advance which one would be better to buy.

In the meantime, entropy was disappearing all of a sudden.

When Jung Daesik’s attention was distracted, the screen naturally turned off, and entropy seemed to return to the standby state.

However, if the magic power was gathered and floated, it was possible to drive it again.

So, first of all, we found out about the purchase of weapons.

Jung Daesik leaned back and grabbed his slow, broken cell phone, peering through the narrow window, searching through the various weapon stores.

‘Now that I know about the market price, I’ll go to the mall tomorrow and buy a suitable one. Before that, you have to register as a hunter first.’

Usually, the first thing to do after awakening is to register as an awakened person.

I had to do that, but I was given a weapon license, so I decided to stop by the Awakened Management Office before going to buy a weapon.

With that in mind for tomorrow’s route, Jung Daesik went to bed.

…but somehow I couldn’t sleep.

Is it because there were too many things happening today?Lying in a dimly lit room, just like yesterday, I still couldn’t feel it.

The fact that she had awakened felt like nothing else.

‘…I’ll start to feel it gradually.’

Jung Daesik forced his eyes closed and went to sleep.

Episode 2. First Hunt

“Woah woah ah!”

Jung Daesik screamed and jumped out of bed.

He reached out his hand, drenched in cold sweat, and hurriedly patted the wall.

Then he pressed the light switch that reached his hand.

Then the dark room became bright.

Since it’s a jjok room, there are no windows, so if you don’t turn on the light, you can’t see anything.

The environment was unbearable for ordinary people, but it was familiar to Jung Daesik.

But today, because I had a nightmare, I longed for the sunlight.

He hurriedly left the door.

He dragged his slippers out into the sunlit alleyway and squatted there.

After that, his startled heart subsided and his head began to spin.

‘What the hell did I dream of? It must have been a very unfortunate dream.’

Jung Daesik wiped his forehead and traced his memory.

‘Yeah, it was a weird dream. Such a nonsensical dream in which I am summoned to the divine space and awakened……’

Jung Daesik, who looked back at the last night in silence for a moment, widened his eyes.

‘No, that’s not a dream! It actually happened! Yesterday I was really called to the divine space! And I met the god of wealth, greed, and price!’

Jung Daesik looked back on the fact that he had awakened.

Then he gathered his magical powers and launched it into the air to confirm it again.

Then, as always, a cursor appeared in the air, and Jung Daesik said in a whisper.

“Entropy.”

As soon as his words fell, the speech bubble grew and popped out from inside.

“… it’s true.”

“I mean, I’ve become an Awakened.”

For entropy, Jung Daesik’s words were taken for granted.

“Yeah, I see. Stop going in.”

Jung Daesik cleared the entropy and stood up.

‘Yeah, I’m pretty sure I’ve become an Awakened.’

He quietly returned to his room and prepared to go out.

He shoved his empty wallet into his pocket and went out without locking the door.

Then he got on the subway and headed straight to the Awakened Management Office as planned yesterday.
