A Cash Warrior

-1 Volume 11

In response to Jeong Dae-sik’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 your money, is it worth more than your life? So, except for a few selected top percent… I can’t.”

Jeong Dae-sik 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!”

“……”

Jeong Dae-sik was speechless.

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

Jeong Dae-sik also went to return home.

Then I looked back at today’s hunting.

I remembered seeing the thrush of a hell dog right in front of my nose.

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

‘fun? You’re just doing it for fun?’

Jeong Dae-sik snorted.

‘What nonsense!’

Jung Dae-sik worked as a hunter for money.

After buying the target building and getting rich, he was going to get rid of this dangerous job.

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

Jeong Dae-sik felt hungry and went into a nearby knight’s restaurant.

It was not dinner time, so the restaurant was quiet. So, I ordered a plate of Duruchigi and called entropy.

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

I couldn’t save money until my abilities went up to a certain level.

You have to be strong to defeat monsters and earn money, right?

Still, if you 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, Jeong Dae-sik told Entropy.

“…Today, when I ran the last shot, I heard that the strengthening ability was treated as a favor. Can’t we make this better?”

Entropy answered Jeong Dae-sik’s question.

Jeong Dae-sik immediately opened the Skills tab and checked the enhancement upgrade.

and opened his mouth wide. It wasn’t that she opened her mouth wide, her chin 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 billions.

It was 10 billion.

10 billion!

‘Is this the price of a house? If I had this money, I would not buy this kind of ability, but an apartment!’

Jeong Dae-sik 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 we looked at other purchases.

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

Daesik Jeong’s current magic power was 18.

It cost 9 million won to raise it to 19.

To raise it 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 1 point.

It really couldn’t have been more difficult. Even a feeling of injustice came to me as if I had been caught in some multi-level process. Jeong Dae-sik gritted his teeth while glaring at the entropy that he had longed for in the wind.

‘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, after buying magic a few times, I was 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 reinforcement skills. 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 Jeong Dae-sik, a steaming drumstick appeared.

It looked so delicious that it smelled sweet.

However, Jeong Dae-sik was in trouble without even thinking of lifting his chopsticks.

‘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 why Jeong Dae-sik’s strengthening skill became usable was because he had raised 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.

Jeong Dae-sik asked Entropy a question to confirm his guess.

“Hey, speed skills.”

“If a speed skill is to be useful, does it have to be something like magical power just like an enhancement skill?”

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

“Okay……”

Jeong Dae-sik was in trouble, not knowing that Durchigi was cooling down.

‘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 it is better to improve the status item than to buy the skill…… Uh-uh…’

Jeong Dae-sik completely wrapped his hair.

‘Ahh! I don’t 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 Jeong Dae-sik.

When I used it in one sitting, I had no choice but to 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.’

It was only then that I became interested in the Duruchigi in front of me.

Belatedly realizing his hunger, Jeong Dae-sik began to play with his chopsticks.

Chapter 4. Cerberus

In the end, Jeong Dae-sik gave up on purchasing the swift skill.

Instead, I decided to increase my stamina.

“Okay, buy 1 point of stamina!”

But as he exclaimed with enthusiasm, he was immediately astonished.

“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 natural, but very brazen voice to Jeong Dae-sik’s ears.

“Whether I buy magic, stamina, or agility, buying points will always increase money, isn’t it?”

After hearing the retort that seemed to be very natural, I lost all my energy.

I didn’t even feel like swearing, but swear words came out of my 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 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 health at this point? Isn’t it right to increase your agility?’

“Aww!”

Jeong Dae-sik wrapped his hair and rolled over on the messy futon.

“I’m going to die!”

After thinking about it for about half a day again, Jeong Dae-sik decided to purchase his stamina just as he had initially decided.

It was because he decided that no matter what he did, his physical strength 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 purchase stamina.’

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

‘I spent 9 million won on this. About 6 million won left.’

There must have been about 60 million won in his account until he became an Awakened.

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

If I wanted to become a hunter, I would have to be rich, but somehow I felt like I was getting poorer and poorer.

The fact that he was still in an inn room seemed even bigger.

That’s why I couldn’t easily spend the remaining 6 million won.

Leaving it behind, Jeong Dae-sik looked for the next job.

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

He immediately found the bulletin board.

I was trying to figure out where to participate, but I changed my mind on the way.

‘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-dealing and buffering positions at once. 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 I were to ask, 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 Summoners and Spirits were posting.

There, Jeong Dae-sik wrote a post.

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

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

There were so many messages that I couldn’t control myself.

“this!”

Jeong Dae-sik hurriedly deleted the post he had posted, and carefully scanned the arrived note.

As I was choosing a party that I could properly participate in, I felt strange.

‘… Speaking 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.’

Jeong Dae-sik hasn’t purchased 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?’

The same thought crossed my mind, and Jeong Dae-sik shook his head.

‘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 the imagination of going far and planned the next hunt.
