"That stupid informant, he's just like in the game—sucking up to the seers to get more engagement on his channel and to get placed in the top channels."
"But I don't have time for that. I have to make it to the bridge in time before the stage ends."
"And I need to find a way to use the store to buy a weapon without letting the seers or informant see me."
The "System Store" is a store given to the player in the second mission of the game to help the character move forward.
But it seems like I can open up the store before it was even given to us, maybe because of the skill that I have.

After checking in the store and finding the item I wanted, the Broken Dagger, for 100 coins.
| Broken Dagger | |
|---------------------------|---------------------------------|
| Description | A dagger used to fight off monsters but broken due to poor quality. |
| Cost | 100 coins |
| Attributes | Unknown |
"Yes, it's here! Like in the game, Broken Dagger may sound useless, but it has a special skill: if you use it to kill more than 100 monsters, it will turn into a Broken Fate Dagger. It gives the character plus three more attack points every time it is used."

| You have purchased the Broken Dagger. 100 coins were consumed. |

| You have been given 90 coins for being the first person to find a loot box. |
"Just as I thought, it's just like S.T.A. If you were to find a loot box before anyone else in the game, you were rewarded with coins. But why is the message showing up now?"
"Don't tell me it's because the informant is trying to make seers join his channel and not giving out the gifts."
"The fallen angel has taken an interest in you."
"Huh, a fallen angel, so a seer has taken a liking to me, huh? But I have no time for that. I have to keep moving to the bridge."
"It seems like a seer has taken an interest in a few people. Thank you very much and please stay for the rest of the game."
"That bastard, why doesn't he just do his job and stop trying to get seers into the channel?"
After running to the bridge, I was blocked by one of the most annoying things in the game: the poison fog.
| System Message |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Poison fog: if the character enters the fog without protection from an item or relic, the character will surely die. |
"How am I going to pass the fog? In the games, I usually just run through the fog, taking a little bit of damage, but now I'm playing this with my life."
"The only way to get past this place is by using up my coins." [Open System Store]
| System Store |
|----------------------------|
| Healing Potion | 20 coins |
| Lizard Man Eyes | 30 coins |
| Poison Frog Head | 90 coins |
| System Message |
|--------------------------------------------------|
| No more items in the store at the moment due to the early opening. |
"Looks like what I wanted is here, but the store is not fully up and running yet."
| System Store Message |
|--------------------------------------------------------------|
| You have purchased the Poison Frog Head. 90 coins have been taken from the player. |
"By taking the Poison Frog Head, I can remove the insides and leave the glands that it uses to breathe and the skin to block the poison from affecting the player."
"This thing is harder to clean than I thought. It looks so easy in the game."
| System Message |
|-----------------------------------------------|
| You have acquired the title Frog Cleaner Level One. |
"Frog Cleaner, a useful title, but why am I acquiring a title already? Frog Cleaner title is only given to a player after they clean more than 12 frog types."
"So what's happening? Is it because of my skill that I acquired?"
"The fallen angel's interest has been piqued by the character Hyun because of his rapid growth and ability to stay composed in such situations."
"Shit! A seer has taken an interest in me. It's going to be difficult to do things without seeming suspicious."
"And of all the seers to take an interest in me, it had to be the fallen angel."
"But I'll worry about that later. I have to move now."
After placing the frog head over his head, Hyun ran through the fog and reached the other side, where he stopped to catch his breath and get supplies at a nearby gas station.
"Thank God that worked. If it didn't, I would have died back there."
"If my knowledge of this area is right, there should be a gas station around here somewhere. There it is, but it looks like someone or something had broken into it already."
