In response to Jung Daesik’s question, Kwak Yi-seok shrugged his shoulders and explained.

“You shouldn’t do this for the purpose of money. The unit of money that comes and goes is large, so most people think that hunters make good money, but it’s not true. It’s a job risking your life. No matter how great money is, is it worth more than your life? So, except for a few selected top percent… I can’t.”

Jung Daesik asked casually.

“Then for what purpose do you continue to work as a hunter?”

Kwak Yi-seok said as if he was asking because he did not know the question.

“Of course it’s fun!”

“……”

Jung Daesik was speechless.

At that time, Moon Yu-beom called him, and Kwak Yi-seok left to see him again.

Jung Daesik also went to return home.

Then he looked back at today’s hunting.

He chewed on seeing the thrush of a hell dog right in front of his nose.

Then, what Kwak Yi-seok said was very absurd.

‘fun? You’re just doing it for fun?’

Jung Daesik snorted.

‘What nonsense!’

Jung Daesik’s job as a hunter was for money.

After he bought the target building and became rich, he was going to get rid of this risky thing quickly.

‘The problem is that you have to spend that much money to make a lot of money…’

Jung Daesik felt hungry and went into a nearby knight’s restaurant.

It was not dinner time, so the restaurant was quiet. So, he put a plate on the drum and called entropy.

‘Think with a business mind. Yeah, you say money makes money, right? This is an investment!’

He couldn’t save money until he reached a certain level of ability.

Shouldn’t you be strong enough to defeat monsters and earn money?

Still, when I think about it, I was in a better position than the others.

Normal hunters unconditionally beat monsters in dungeons and become stronger. On the other hand, how convenient and safe is sage!

It’s worth the investment, Jung Daesik told Entropy.

“…Today, when I ran the last shot, my strengthening ability was treated like a treat. Can’t we make this better?”

Entropy answered Jung Daesik’s question.

Jung Daesik went straight to the Skills tab and checked the enhancement upgrade.

And he opened his mouth wide. It wasn’t enough to open his mouth wide, his jaw almost fell out.

“What is this? What’s so expensive? The price is crazy!”The amount of money required to upgrade the enhancement skill was billions.

And it’s not just a billion.

It was 10 billion.

10 billion!

‘Is this the price of a house? With this money, I’d rather buy an apartment than this kind of ability!’

Jung Daesik barely pushed his missing chin.

‘Well, it’s so good that the price is so high… Sheesh, okay. Put this on hold for now.’

And he looked at other purchases.

‘Um, I was originally going to raise my magic power up to 20, so should I buy points?’

The current Jung Daesik’s horsepower was 18.

It cost 9 million won to raise it to 19.

To raise to 20, it would cost 10 million won, so a total of 19 million won was needed.

‘Damn, expensive!’

As the magic power level went up, the price continued to rise even for the same one point.

It really couldn’t be easier. Even a feeling of injustice came to me as if I had been caught in some multi-level process. Jung Daesik gritted his teeth while staring at the entropy that he had been craving for for nothing.

‘Damn it, I can’t help it… but I still have 1,500 funds. I have to figure out how to use this effectively.’

As for the ability, I bought magic a few times, and I became interested in the skill.

While upgrading the shop last time, the types of skills that can be purchased have increased slightly.

Of course, most were too expensive to afford.

But if it was ‘quick’, it seemed worth living.

The price was only 10 million won.

‘I don’t have any defensive abilities other than that I have an enhancement skill. From my point of view, who pursues safety first, it is insecure. In that sense, it seems like it would be quite useful to buy a speedy skill. After all, isn’t the best plan in a crisis situation the 36 precepts?’

“Rolling has arrived!”

In front of the troubled Jung Daesik, a steaming drumstick appeared.

It was really delicious to smell the sweet and sour.

However, Jung Daesik did not even think of lifting his chopsticks and was in trouble.

‘Yes, lion! You buy speed! …No, wait a minute. Does it make sense to buy a swift skill in my current situation?’

Strictly speaking, the reason Jung Daesik’s strengthening skill became usable was thanks to raising his magic power by a few points.

Therefore, there was a high possibility that the quick skill would not have much effect with just the skill.

Jung Daesik questioned his entropy to confirm his guess.

“Hey, speed skills.”

“If a quick skill is to be useful, doesn’t something like magical power affect it like an enhancement skill?”

“Health and agility? How do each affect what?”

“Okay……”

Jung Daesik didn’t even know that the dulchigi was getting cold, and he was in trouble.

‘Even if you have a quick skill, if you don’t have stamina or agility, it doesn’t matter much. In fact, if you have good stamina, you won’t be able to run for a certain amount of time without the need for quick skills. It doesn’t require any special skill to run and run. Then, rather than buying a skill, it would be better to improve the status item…

Jung Daesik wrapped his hair completely.

‘Aww! I do not know!’

That’s 10 million won.

10 million won!

It’s not your dog’s name.

Even the money he earned in just one day was still a lot of money for Jung Daesik.

When I used it in one sitting, I couldn’t help but have a lot of thoughts.

‘Calm down, calm down. This is an investment after all! If you don’t pay it off right away, it’s not like a debt that snowballs in interest. It’s never too late to make a decision after considering it enough. You’re not going to go into the dungeon right now, are you? At least until the next hunt, I have enough time.’

Only then did he become interested in the drumming in front of his eyes.

Belatedly realizing his hunger, Jung Daesik started playing with his chopsticks.

Episode 4. Cerberus

In the end, Jung Daesik gave up on purchasing his swift skill.

Instead, he decided to increase his stamina.

“Okay, buy 1 point of stamina!”

However, he exclaimed with excitement, and was soon taken by surprise.

“Uh-huh? Why does it cost 9 million won to raise your stamina by 1 point?”

It is understood that the higher the number, the higher the amount of points.

But that’s magic, and this isn’t stamina.

Magic and stamina were completely separate events, so I couldn’t understand why they needed 8 million won more money.

Then entropy spoke in a voice that sounded natural, but very brazen to Jung Daesik’s ears.

“Whether I buy magic, stamina, or agility, buying points will always increase money, right?”

Hearing the reply as if it was very natural, he lost all his energy.

He didn’t even feel like swearing, but swear words came out of his mouth.

“Such shubal……”

So no matter what you buy in the future, the amount of points will gradually increase.

Then, the mind that had decided to give up the quick skill and buy stamina was shaken.

‘If this happened, wouldn’t it be better to buy a skill? No, if you don’t have any stamina anyway, even if you buy a quick skill, the maintenance time will be premature, so it’s just chaff. But is it right to buy stamina at this point? Isn’t it right to increase your agility?’

“Aww!”

Jung Daesik wrapped his hair up and rolled over the messy futon.”I’m going to die!”

After another half-day of thinking about it, Jung Daesik decided to buy the stamina as he had originally decided.

It was because he decided that whatever he did, his stamina would be the basis.

‘Isn’t it true that once a person has the energy, he can do anything seriously? Whether it’s attack power or defense, stamina will affect it, so I think it’s right to buy stamina.’

Even after making that decision, my hands were shaking as I raised my stamina by one point.

‘He spent nine million won on this. About 6 million won left.’

Before he became Awakened, he had about 60 million won in his bank account.

But now he had only 6 million won left in his hand.

If he became a hunter, he should be rich, but somehow it felt like he was getting poorer and poorer.

It seemed that it was more because he was still in the inn room.

So he could not easily spend the remaining 6 million won.

Leaving that aside, Jung Daesik found his next job.

‘The only way to overcome this situation is to hunt and hunt with dignity!’

He immediately found the bulletin board.

He changed his mind on the way while exploring where to participate.

‘I felt like I was catching a hell dog the other day, but it’s rare for a person to be able to handle both one deal and buffer at the same time. Besides, my skill level is around level 7, right? There is no need for me to find a seat.’

He changed the bulletin board.

If you ask me, should I say that I entered the job search board rather than the job board?

Instead of classifying by dungeon and looking for people to join the party, I went to the bulletin board to find a party by uploading my own specs.

Usually a high-spirited healer, buffer, or special job……

It was a place where jobs such as Summoner or Elementalist posted articles.

There Jung Daesik wrote a post.

-‘Level 7 One Deal, Raid Needed with Workshop Buffs’

I was afraid to leave a post without any particular content, and messages poured in.

There were so many messages that it was almost impossible to control them.

“this!”

Jung Daesik hurriedly deleted the post he had posted, and carefully scanned the arrived note.

As he was choosing a suitable party to attend, he felt strange.

‘…In terms of the abilities I have, there is only one strengthening skill. Even with that alone, I have a skill close to level 7, and it is now possible to play two positions at the same time.’

Jung Daesik hasn’t bought any skills yet.

Saying that he bought it with money is only a few points. The shop has only been upgraded once.

As I suddenly became aware of that fact, I vaguely questioned it.

‘If you buy more stats and skills than you do now, how strong can you be?’

Jung Daesik shook his head as a sudden thought passed by.

‘No, what am I thinking? That’s not important. I need to get the maximum result in a short time with the minimum investment. Once you’ve earned enough money to make a living in the future, you’ll get your hands dirty quickly. It wouldn’t even take that much ability to get to that level.’

He shattered his imagination of going far and planned the next hunt.
