Other qwats rushed in front of them, who were stunned.

Then, Kang Min-hyuk shouted a warning.

“Come again, come to your senses!”

The nerds adjusted their posture and charged Kwat.

By that time, Jung Daesik also had some spare time.

There was a limit to the amount of magical power he could use, so he didn’t sharpen his gun like before.

He waited calmly and shot only those who could not handle them or ignored them and rushed this way.

As a result, there was no gap in the line.

The party members just stood in place and knocked down the crowds of qwats.

Then, all of a sudden, Kwat disappeared.

The all-out battle is over.

Afraid of that, Yong Dae-hyung approached Jung Daesik.

He burst out laughing hahaha and patted Jung Daesik on the shoulder.

“Now that I see you, you’re so talented? To knock out Kwat in one shot!”

Beside him, Ki Chul-min asked with a very suspicious expression.

“Are you really a beginner? It’s not true, is it?”

At that, Kim Jun-seok folded his arms and nodded his head.

“That’s right. I can’t think of a level 8 hunter at all. With that level of skill, it’s equivalent to a level 7 hunter.”

Shin Geum-joo and Kang Min-hyeok also added to the story.

“Even though Quat is the lowest level of level 10 monster, if you can catch it this easily, Junseok is right. You should consider him a level 7 hunter.”

“You can be honest. Why did you say you’re a beginner?”

Jung Daesik stood slightly perplexed.

In fact, he was very surprised.

He only used the strengthening skill once, but his attack power increased significantly.

I don’t know exactly, but it wasn’t normal.

As everyone else said, he had to reach level 7 to show this level of skill, so he said, bewildered.

“I didn’t lie. It’s really my first time hunting today.”

“Then is it a good weapon? It looks like a regular automatic rifle.”

Ki Chul-min did not cast aside his suspicions.

But Jung Daesik didn’t need to explain everything, so he just shrugged his shoulders.

Then, Yong Dae-hyung tapped Ki Cheol-min on the side and said.

“Anyway, it’s a good thing if you’re good at it. Let’s make a big match today!”

* * *

Jung Daesik went into a deeper area to hunt with the party members.

Thanks to Yong Dae-hyung, who was in a good mood, handed him a magic supplement, he drank it and almost swept the Kwat haunts.

Thanks to this, the porters suffered a lot.

It was necessary to call in a truck and a few more people to carry the huge number of quats.The processing time took longer than the hunting time, so what a shame!

Yongdae-hyung handed the whole truck over to the broker.

There is a way to go directly to the monster by-product disposal facility and dispose of it, but that takes a lot of effort.

There were no valuable items from Quat that had to be disposed of separately, so it was better to pay a small fee and hand them over to the broker who is always waiting in front of the dungeon.

The broker pays the dragon squad the price of quats, and the dragon team deducts the cost of hiring a porter, truck rental, and equipment consumed from the money.

And as promised, we shared our share.

The amount given to Jung Daesik was 8 million won!

Originally it was 700, but Yong Dae-hyung gave him a small amount of 8 million won considering his performance today.

When Jung Daesik said thank you, Yong Dae-hyung gave a disgusting wink and patted him on the back.

“I’m really grateful. Thanks to him, I earned a decent amount for a suljapat. If there is a chance, let’s work together again next time.”

Jung Daesik nodded his head moderately and parted with them and left the dungeon.

It was very late, and the subway and bus had already been cut off, and taxis were all on the street.

However, Jung Daesik did not get into the taxi.

He walked to organize his thoughts.

‘It’s amazing to earn 8 million won a day…’

Jung Daesik struggled to calm his fluttering mind.

Pressing down his twitching lips, he looked back at what had happened today.

He said, ‘I expected him to make more money than a porter, but in just one day he made about three million won more than a month’s income as a porter.’

At this rate, becoming a building owner is not a dream.

No, he might be closer than he thought.

‘If you earn 8 million won a day, you can earn 160 million won a month even if you work 5 days a week, excluding weekends! In one year, the annual salary is close to 2 billion won… That’s enough to buy a building.’

But the more I thought about it, the more I got greedy.

‘…A major building in Gangnam where you can make money is not enough with 2 billion won. Two billion is the price of just one apartment. You need at least one or five billion won to buy a plausible real estate. In addition, an apartment with a view of the Han River, a foreign car, and cash assets must be owned by two people to be rich, right?’

Of course, in Jung Daesik’s current situation, 2 billion is a lot of money.

Still, it seemed difficult to call him rich with that money.

At least middle class?

‘It takes about 10 billion won to be rich. Then he said that he had to work for another 5 years… 5 years is too long in the world of the hunter.’

5 years.

If it’s short, it’s short, if it’s long, it’s long.

But for Hunter, it was clear that it was long.

Hunter is a job that puts your life as collateral.

You’ve been doing that for 5 years.

It seemed that it would be difficult to get a good buy without being very lucky.

‘It’s unreasonable to hunt like today for five years. Today, my skill was unexpectedly strong, so I hunted easily, but there is no guarantee that it will be like that in the future, right? If you accidentally run into even a powerful monster, you will be in trouble. I’ve heard that hunters lose a lot of money once they get hurt.’

When a hunter is injured, it means that he is injured by a monster.

It wasn’t just a bruise or a fracture.

It was the sound of the skin being torn and bones being crushed, and the sound of being infected with an unknown poison or disease.

Recovering from such an injury is not just about lying in the hospital.

I needed a large amount of money because I had to use potions or get heals.

It would be nice to be able to survive like that.

If you made a mistake, you could go to the goal in one shot, so it was risky to make money while playing around the suljapat for 5 years.

‘In the future, if you want to earn money by running around the suljapot, you have to at least be stronger than you are now. This isn’t the time to enjoy catching some of the lowest-ranked monsters, Kwat. Fortunately, I know how to be strong…’

The way Jung Daesik became strong was easy.

spend money

none other than genius.

Spend money to get stronger!

It was also in line with God’s intention in choosing him as the Awakened.

‘Other people get stronger little by little as they go through countless trials and tribulations. But as long as I have money, I can quickly and easily become strong in one sitting.’

Then, little by little, he realized the greatness of his abilities.

Even in normal games, if you were smart, you could save a lot of effort and time.

It will be possible to level up quickly like using cheats.

But Jung Daesik was able to do that in real life.

‘only! My method eats money… I need money like my blood.’

To make money, you have to be strong.

To get stronger, you have to spend that money again.

It is indeed a dilemma.

Amidst this contemplation, Jung Daesik sighed heavily.

Episode 3. The Second Hunt

As I was engrossed in my thoughts, I eventually walked home on foot.

Jung Daesik hurriedly went to an ATM near his house to organize his bankbook.

After that, he saw that he had a balance of 8.5 million won.

Looking into it, Jung Daesik struggled.

‘Are you going to raise your stats by stinging again?’

In fact, as his magical power reached 17, his abilities became quite strong.

Since the attack power increases significantly when the reinforcement skill is used, the attack power seemed to be sufficient.

I don’t know if I could hunt higher level monsters or even enter the hole, but this is enough for beginners and suljapots.

But once the attack got stronger, I was worried about the defense this time.

Jung Daesik’s purpose is money!

He had to buy his body because it was to get rich.

He had no choice but to worry about his defense, as it was as important not to get hurt as it was to kill a monster.

Jung Daesik went back to the cramped room to organize his thoughts.

‘Okay, let’s raise the mana to 20 first. 17 is because something is wrong. Then raise your defense. Shouldn’t people be safe and look?’

Mumbling that safety is paramount, he concentrated his magic on the palm of his hand.

And he moved the cursor to call the helper, entropy.

“Hey.”

“What kind of status do you need to raise to raise your defense?”

Speech bubble-shaped entropy quickly answered.

“Hmm, of course. I thought so.”

Jung Daesik, nodding his head alone, opened the question.

“What exactly do you get better when you increase your stamina?”

Again, entropy did not hesitate.

“You mean all-weather body bread has risen?”

Then, for the first time, entropy threw a counter-moon.

“I pretended to be good-looking, but I did everything I could. You barely know the word “bodied”?”

Jung Daesik seemed to be offended by what Jung Daesik said with a smirk.

Of course, just what a speech bubble would feel like was considered that way in Jung Daesik’s eyes.

“Okay, it’s not that important. Rather, how much stamina do you have to have in order to stay healthy despite the attacks of monsters like Kwat you caught today?”

Jung Daesik thought that he would easily answer this kind of question even if he didn’t know the word entropy.

Entropy is a helper, because this is about hunting.

But, unexpectedly, entropy came up with something else instead of an answer.

“What? You mean you don’t know?”

“What’s the helper? What do you know?”

To Jung Daesik’s words, Entropy responded indifferently.

Naturally, it sounded angry in Jung Daesik’s ears.

“Buy technology? Does that mean spend money?”

“His money, money…”

Jung Daesik grumbled at the occasional Dontaryeong.

I’ve only earned 8 million won now, but I can’t afford to spend it again.

Since he had already made up his mind to raise his magic and stamina, it would be difficult to easily purchase new technology.

Still, he wanted to know what kind of technique it was, so Jung Daesik asked a question.

“What is that technology?”

“Huh, that would be very convenient.”

Thanks to his life as a porter, Jung Daesik was well aware that there were many different types of monsters in the dungeon.

I don’t know where so many monsters come from, but if you go into a little remote place in the dungeon, all sorts of strange guys popped out.

In that case, strange monsters that I had never seen before appeared.

Or, a rare guy who knows the name but has never actually fought before appears.

It was very dangerous to face such an unknown monster.
