Episode 7. Taste of Hyeonjil

The uproar caused by the Monster Break was widely reported.

Although it is small, it is the first Monster Break in 10 years.

It had to be noisy.

Moreover, Monster Break meant the emergence of a new dungeon.

There was no guarantee that something like this wouldn't happen again, so self-proclaimed and self-proclaimed experts appeared in the news and made assumptions about what would happen in the future.

In addition, the story of Jung Daesik, a righteous man who saved a bus passenger, also flowed out.

Jung Daesik did not give any interviews or contact the broadcast media, but the passengers on the bus were different.

He vividly conveyed the sense of crisis at that time, and wanted to express his gratitude to him even through broadcasting.

- Oh, I don't know where he would be by now if it wasn't for that young man. How much effort the old man must have tried to save his life... I am just grateful.

-I want to say thank you to her for saving our mother...

Jung Daesik overlooked such a screen.

He didn't mean to say thank you anyway.

Right now, all my nerves were focused on getting stronger than I am now.

'In the meantime, I was immersed in the thought of buying a building, so I didn't have a proper piece of armor. Even with a single automatic rifle, the weapon has been consumed all the time. In the meantime, I've been able to withstand it with my strengthening skills... but it would be better to upgrade.'

Jung Daesik roamed the hunter-related community and did extensive market research.

However, armor and weapons were considerably more expensive than expected.

'I knew that the equipment used by hunters was expensive, but this is really huge. 1 billion is not even money, is it?'

The most basic equipment.

One breastpiece made of reinforced aluminum cost hundreds of millions of dollars. Helmet, shoulder rests, arm guards, thigh guards, gloves, and boots were well over 1.5 billion won to provide a full set.

'Damn it, the real price seems reasonable. What's so expensive?'

No matter how hard you call it, it's just aluminum, isn't it?

But I couldn't believe it was so expensive.

'If you want to buy a piece of armor that you want to be okay with, you can easily break several billions. Uh-huh... With that money, I'd be left with buying a building. In that case, I'd rather upgrade the strengthening skill.'

Jung Daesik grunted inwardly, this time recognizing the weapon.

'The price of an automatic rifle that can mount up to three amplifiers... is 100 million won. Weapons are cheap though. But if you add various options to this, it will cost hundreds of millions of dollars. When equipped with special bullets that increase the power of the gun, this is also quite expensive. First of all, aren't special bullets consumables? Once you use it, you're done. How much does it cost from a few hundred to a few thousand? Isn't that a bit harsh?'

He sighed and threw the phone away.

And he lay down in the cramped and cracked corner of the room, deep in thought.

'It's hard to die just by buying skills, but if you want to equip yourself with equipment, your back will be bent. Words get stronger, and it costs a lot of money. If it's like this, it's unreasonable to cover the money with the mak-gong. I prefer to solo...'

This time he turned his body over and rolled his head.

'How much solo can you play in a situation where you can't even deal with a metal dung beetle? At the most, it's like a hell-beast dog... No matter how much you try, it's impossible to catch a real money maker. If I went to catch Cerberus by myself, would it become dog food in an instant?'

Jung Daesik recalled the moment Choi Hee appeared.

He appeared with thunder and lightning and drove the monsters to death at once.

Literally one hundred per day.If I had that kind of ability, it wouldn't matter if I was alone, but Jung Daesik wasn't.

-...If something like this happens in the future, just like Jung Daesik, each and every ordinary hunter will need more activity.

Jung Daesik pondered over Hanna Jang's words.

'...Yeah, if you can't do it alone, there's a way to have multiple people. What if I organize a hole?'

It didn't seem like a bad idea.

No, it was quite reasonable.

'I have already mastered the three abilities of the reinforcement world, the spiritual world, and the change world. It's the same as getting the healer and tank abilities while the dealer and the buffer are already available, so you might be able to organize a raid.'

Jung Daesik jumped up from his seat and sat down.

and opened his mouth.

"Entropy!"

Entropy immediately appeared as he floated the concentrated magic on his palm in the air.

"Huh? Your appearance has changed... a little?"

Will the store upgrade be affected in any way?

Entropy, which was nothing more than a speech bubble, changed.

This is why the speech bubble has symbols that are considered to be eyes, nose, and mouth.

Should I say I have a face?

It was only at the level of an emoji to be called a face, but anyway, it looked much more specific than before.

Then entropy briefly explained.

"I see. Even if I say that it has changed, it's just two circles and one more triangle."

Jung Daesik said in response to the attitude of not talking nonsense and telling the matter quickly.

"It's not because of the fact that the mental skills have improved a bit with the shop upgrade."

Jung Daesik nodded his head and soon a spear appeared before his eyes.

Currently, he had a total of three mental skills that he could acquire.

"Observation has already been bought... Provocation and enemy concentration?"

"What's the difference between taunt and the enemy's concentration?"

Entropy made a face that he didn't even know.

This time, it wasn't because of the mood, it was certain.

This is because the emoticon on the speech bubble, which is considered a face, has changed to '-_-'.

"Isn't the ability normally used by tanks close to the enemy's concentration?"

"Then there's no need for provocations? If you only scribble a few shots..."

"Well, if you have this skill, you can save the power wasted by the preemptive attack."

Anyway, the price of one skill is 10 million won.

Thinking it was cheap, Jung Daesik bought both.

"Then I'll buy two things: taunt and enemy focus."

"How much money do you have left?"

I've been earning like a dog in the meantime, so I have quite a bit of money left even after upgrading the shop and purchasing these and other abilities.

Still, I was amazed that I couldn't buy a pair of armor.

'I'm starting to feel that my sense of money is getting numb. Now, when you say 10 million won, the first thing that comes out is that it's cheap.'

Now that you have acquired two skills, you have the basic qualities of a tank.

'Now, I'll have to set up the armor with the rest of the money and practice a bit in the makgong.'

Jung Daesik got up from his seat and tried to go out to the mall.

Then he stopped and picked up his phone.

'Before that, I have to sell Choi Hee's autograph. do you know Can I get a share?'

Then he wrote on a second-hand trading site, thinking that he should spend a little more on buying armor.

-'sell. Superstar Choi Hee's autograph. A hot new statue.'

* * *

Jung Daesik sold Choi Hee's autograph for 100 million won.

For Jung Daesik, it was a windfall.

'Choi Hee's popularity is great. It's not even a dead person, but the autograph price is so expensive.'

Jung Daesik sang his hum and went to the armor shop.

And there he bought 500 million worth of reinforced aluminum armor.

There was one used for sale, and I was able to prepare a full set from head to toe.

Then he went straight to the arms store across the street.

He went to the store where he had bought the last automatic rifle, handed over the old one, and paid 280 million to buy a new automatic rifle for 300 million.

With three amplifiers and three economizers, it was much better.

There, with his brilliant speech, he received three more special bullets.

"I felt it last time, but there is really no strength. Do you know how much this special bullet costs? It's a whopping 300, 300!"

Jung Daesik shuddered at the owner who took the special ammunition out of the case with a look of regret.

"Aren't you going to put that case in?"

"I won, take it! Take it!"

The owner kept complaining about him, but he didn't look like he hated it that much.

In fact, those who sell armor and weapons did not dislike selling things to novice hunters.

Most of them die on the first hunt, so they don't come back a second time.

So some merchants used to sprinkle salt to say that if a beginner hunter bought a weapon for the first time, it would be unlucky.

Conversely, a hunter who lived with Jung Daesik and visited again was treated as a nobleman.

Good luck if a novice hunter saves his life with his first weapon and sells it back.

That is why, the owner was very kind and provided special ammunition and a new automatic rifle, including a case, and said.

"Please come back to sell this weapon by surviving next time."

"I'm sure it will, so next time I'll add some of that too."

Jung Daesik frowned at what he said while beckoning the handsome gunman.

"No way! It's from my personal collection!"

"Don't say no."

Trembling that he had only said it once, Jung Daesik packed up the things he had purchased and left the mall.

And I was hungry, so I was going to the market, wondering if I should have some rice or something, when I heard a strange noise from somewhere.

Kugugugugugu-.

'Did a jet fly?'

Jung Daesik lifted his head casually, and then smirked.

'no?'

Something was flying through the clouds.

It fell right in front of me like a shot put.

Quad Duck!

Sidewalk blocks were smashed, creating dust and noise.

Among them, it was none other than Choi Hee.

Jung Daesik was so startled that he pouted his lips.

"Wow, hey, how are you...?"

Then, Choi Hee quickly got up.

As you can see, from where she ran in a hurry, she was dressed in sweatpants.

She looked at Jung Daesik with her furious eyes, draped in a lint-filled Adidas track top and her knee-high track pants.

Cold sweat ran down her back and behind her back in the wind.

"What... to me, anything?"

In front of the bewildered Jung Daesik, Choi Hee held out something of hers.

She said it was an outrageous sign.

It must have been her autograph sold by Jung Daesik just before.

Obviously, I finished a deal with the buyer at the entrance of the subway station before coming out this way, but I don't know why it's in Choi's hands.

Fluttering the sign, Choi Hee opened her mouth.

"It could be, I was just about to move on. The more I thought about it, the more angry I got."

"Yeah?"

"I, who is famous for not signing autographs, signed my autograph with a big heart. Do you just take it and sell it?"

"Well, that's..."

There was no excuse, so Jung Daesik became a savage dumbass.
