** The main character of the story is Johan/Johan.**
put the wrapped cloth he was given in the car without checking it .
" Don't you want to check ?"
" What is the need to check ? Where can you find a perfect trainer like Mr. Johan ?"
The smiling employee meant that he had complete confidence in Johan.
' You have worked flawlessly for five years. This level of trust is natural. "Even though I do the work of five people alone , I find Mr. Johan amazing."
" If it helps me make money , I can do anything."
" If you had tried to hone your skills , you could have truly become a world-class racer. I always feel so sorry for Mr. Johan… oh , no , I didn't mean it like that."
The employee quickly mumbled , smiling innocently in response to the genuine expression.
" It's a valid point, though . It's all because of that."
He handed the staff the magic stones he had taken from the kobold.
Receiving stones of different sizes , the employee determined their value like an appraiser.
" There are some nice stones mixed in as well. This… is probably worth around Rs 70,000 ."
" You are absolutely right. "I think the evaluator should be you , not me ?"
" Hehe , after ten years of dealing with magic stones , you can tell their value just by looking at the size."
The paper fluttered. It was a perfect payment consent form
" Excluding commission , the handling fee is Rs 1.2 lakh and the gemstone purchase price is Rs 70,000 , totalling Rs 1.9 lakh. The deposit bank is in Korea , right ?" I will deposit it immediately.
Ding-
just 10 seconds , the money arrived: Rs 1.9 lakh. If divided among five people , it would be Rs 38,000 each.
After seeing the notification , he nodded politely. The employee , in turn , started the car with a smile.
" So , I'll see you next time. Your earnings look pretty good today ; eat something delicious!"
As the car drove off , Johan took a deep breath. It was a deep breath that contained all the emotions.
" People may be kind , but they lack tact , right ?"
Yet , of all the administrative staff he knows , this guy completes the deposit process the fastest.
" It means the best person."
" But there is one thing wrong. Now the Awakening skill will be followed."
His own secret that no one knows yet.
There was never a day when the growth potential reached zero. Once the conditions are met , it is natural and easy to change the outcome.
Johan strengthened his resolve as he checked the balance.
1.9, an extremely small amount , but it has its own value.
" I made a profit for the first time without spending any money. Now I don't have to spend most of the funds on buying weapons."
Rs 50,000 for a towel , Rs 10,000 for gloves , and the unfortunate possibility of unpaid labour if there is any problem with the goods , the day is filled with uncertainties.
The money earned from each request is usually 10, maximum 20. After deducting the fixed expenses of Rs. 60,000 and the purchase or repair of necessary weapons , the actual amount left is about one third.
" The cost of just one bow is Rs 6 lakh."
" I broke my back paying the installments for a bow that was damaged by a stone axe last month."
" There have been many occasions , more than once or twice , when it would be worth the trouble to earn a few extra tens of dollars for a single hunt or a single mission."
" But if all that money lands on a perfect profit every time , there's no reason not to take the risk."
" Every time you hunt and complete a mission , you get stronger."
" Many people spend thousands just to increase a stat by 1. "
" For now , I have to accept all requests without thinking. It's the only way to get stronger as quickly as possible."
" Recently , with the increase in frequency and boom of dungeon construction , it is not difficult to find work."
" As the number of hunters entering the dungeon increases , so does the Tracer's workload."
" I would have strengthened myself somehow. I was still hungry , and I needed a lot."
Jing-
Amidst so many tangled thoughts , a text message came that put an end to his thoughts.
- Sender , Lim Gangin. 30 unread messages.
Johan did not see the message. It felt like an attempt to add fuel to the fire.
" Let's eat , even the ghost who dies after eating will have good skin."
I bought a military stew meal kit and a sushi set from the big mart , as well as some beer and soju. The idea of enjoying a small party after a long time filled me with excitement.
" Uh , is this Johan ?"
" Oh my , President Choi ~"
When I walked out of the villa , I met someone. I raised my hands in joy.
" What does it mean for you to call President Choi , your elder , ' President Choi ' ? Very arrogant."
The grumbling man shrugged his shoulders as if he didn't hate John that much.
With a strong body and a somewhat rough appearance , he seemed able to fight , but there was a strange kindness hidden within him.
Because he's a regular , because he's a neighbor , because he's a fan.
" Why am I in so much pain ? Is it because I am getting old and my bones are getting weak ?
He patted my little fist gently
He patted it lightly in play , but strangely , it felt as if he had punched a wall , and he felt a solid presence in his bones.
" Cannot be done."
It was a more difficult prospect than winning the lottery , but still , he was desperate for it.
He hopes that this "can't happen" will become reality. May luck like winning the lottery happen to Johan.
Such thoughts arose as Johan boiled the 'bude stew' without even dreaming.
Johan opened the Hunter app and checked the requests list , which now grew to over 10 pages.
" Now even checking the list has become a chore."
stable till recently started expanding explosively again.
" Rare crowds that used to happen once a year are now occurring more frequently."
His general knowledge slowly started to fade away.
In short , it is a matter of being rational.

– Recovery of the body of an E-rank Hunter who died in a Kaliyard Wasteland .
He found a suitable request.
It was a place she had tried to clean alone before.
" I can easily go there alone."
He can also clear high-level missions with Mummy , but since I acquired this ability less than a day ago , I'm not confident enough.
" I'd like to call Mummy (air-blocked Mummy) and see her , but I'm afraid it might be noisy between floors , so I'll refrain."
Although he wants to call the cute little boy , in order to call him , he has to take the coffin out.
If a heavy coffin fell from the air onto the villa floor and made a noise and he received a complaint because of it…
" Oof , terrible."
He doesn't even want to think about it. How annoying could it be ?
He resisted the temptation of his abilities and pressed the button to accept the request.
Waiting for the 9am entry time , picking at pieces of Spam and pepperoni , stirring them slowly in my mouth with a soft Andong soju sent me to dreamland without the hangover.
Johan , who wakes up at 7 a.m. , compulsorily begins his day with morning exercises. This was a habit from the past when he desperately tried to boost his stats.
He ate a quick breakfast and headed for the dungeon he was familiar with.
" Since it's still like the first time , proceed with caution."
As soon as he set foot , the scene around me changed.
The dense villa instantly turned into a wasteland.
The barren field was full of rough rocks , and there was not a single tree there.
As the name suggests , a desolate wasteland.
" Shame."
After checking his surroundings , he called out to the coffin. A black hole opened its mouth in the blue sky.
More.
The coffin , which had been seen for the first time in a day , was still majestic and solid. Johann carefully stroked its surface.
" I missed you. I was so worried you might have disappeared."
I wonder if people with lovers feel the same way…
He picked up the coffin and put it down and opened the lid…
" Call him."
A mummy came out from the dense darkness.
The mummy , whose neck had completely healed , recognized Johan and got down on one knee.
At the same time , the vaguely established fraud disappeared.
" Is this the only skill that uses Scam ?"
When he conducted the initiation ceremony , there was no scam consumption. For him , this was a welcome development.
The more Magic Power and Scam saved , the better.
" It is growing slowly. The speed is quite fast."
is still only grade 1 , so it was a scam that would wear off once the skill was used.
But seeing it slowly grow , it seemed he could use the skill again in about 10 minutes.
" Let's go , mom."
He picked up mommy.
Watching the man shake his head as he reached up to her waist felt like raising a child.
" From now on , your name is Kobada."
Kobada nodded eagerly , perhaps because it was the first name he made up , he felt attached to it.
Even if it is the lowest grade demon.
" There's still a long way to go. We have about 2 km to go , so don't lag behind."
After confirming the expected location , he proceeded without hesitation. Fortunately , 2 km to the west , the field was an open space , with no hiding places , so it was easy to find the body. An open field , with not a single tree or a fork in the road. Chances were high that the body had been placed there. Johan continued walking towards a large rock a little beyond the horizon. This was also because of the bright sunlight.
" Okay. Bingo."
This was the correct answer. A man's leg was sticking out like a stump on top of a 3 meter big rock. There were blood stains at regular intervals on the wall. They were probably marks of a struggle to climb up. Johan also followed the marks and climbed up. The body he found was even more horrifying than he had imagined.
" Hmm."
There was a foul smell all around , the body covered in dirt due to the hot sun , such a sight was rarely seen. "I offer my condolences to the deceased." He tried to open the wrapping cloth , but it was folded. Old habits still persist here and there.
" Emotion."

-5 years experienced hunter , the most dedicated warrior in the dungeon without a single day off , raising two children alone. He was guilty of stealing 10 demon gems to make a living.
In fact , he was a very simple person ; someone's protector and head of the family.
thud-
Bowing slightly , Kobada , who had gone unnoticed , followed Johan. His face was quite adorable with closed eyes and mumbling.
" commitment."
He opened the coffin. A strong wind gently pulled the body inside.
[ Protecting a body. Gain 4 stat points.]
Energy filled me.
Johann , while thinking about which stats to increase , eventually invested all the points into Agility. Since his combat style itself focused on mobility , this was the best choice.
" My muscles are screaming." He inspected his tight muscles and firm body , jumping lightly on the spot.
Who-
The sergeant's jump , which used to be about 1 meter , has now doubled to exactly 2 meters.
With jumping abilities that surpassed human limits , he still felt he had strength left in his legs.
" I can save my strength."
He had never imagined such a situation before.
Is it because he is lost in his own body ?
For the first time , Johan sold something he had never done before , a look.
thunk-
As a result , a poisonous sting penetrated his body. This was the paralyzing poison that the open field dwelling kobaads preferred to use
" Oops!"
He let his guard down.
In a dungeon , it is natural not to close one's eyes even for a moment. And he in his momentary excitement failed to notice the approaching enemy.
Unfortunately , he was standing on the edge of a cliff and if his body stiffened , he would fall down.
" Hmm… ?"
But it was strange.
" Now shouldn't it be strict… ?"
It was obviously time to stiffen up , but except for the stinging area where the arrow was stuck , his body was moving very easily.
As if the poison didn't even react.
[Due to the ' Poison Resistance ' skill , poison resistance has increased. Paralysis poison has been neutralized.]
