Chapter 35
# 35
– Volume 2 Episode 10
Jeong Dae-sik barely escaped from Hwang Mi-geon’s huge chest that was pressing on his face.
He was small, but his chest was huge.
About an E cup?
Without realizing it, I forced my gaze toward that direction, and Jeong Dae-sik said bluntly.
“It’s like saving magic power and using it all at once.”
Jeong Dae-sik passed through the crowd’s gaze and quickly returned to the ranks.
Of course, there was no way that attention would disappear.
The regulars looked at him eagerly with curious eyes, while the temporary ones glanced at him with envy and jealousy.
It was a bit burdensome, so Jeong Dae-shik covered his face while pretending to wipe the blood.
‘I can’t believe the power of the powerful force can be so great! I unintentionally revealed a skill that I didn’t even know existed.’
The rest of the people cleared the path and cleared the dead spider’s body.
Sooner or later, a disposal team staying at the base camp will come in and dismantle the spider’s carcass to collect the by-products.
While the procession was moving again, Ki Chul-min approached him.
He grinned with his eyes wide open.
“Did you really do that with only buffs? Isn’t it? You don’t think it’s that much attack power no matter how much you use a buff?”
“You don’t know.”
Ki Chul-min came to pierce Jeong-gok, standing next to Jeong Dae-sik, who cut and spoke.
“Are you hiding something?”
“What am I?”
“Hmm, there is definitely something. If not…”
Ki Chul-min is the person who remembers Jeong Dae-sik’s first hunt.
That was only a few months ago, so it must be strange.
Even though he was a porter, it was enough to question why he suddenly grew up in such a short period of time, who was only a novice.
Jeong Dae-sik felt like he was shivering inside, but he took off his shichimi.
He couldn’t tell anyone that he was worshiping a god with a name he had never heard of before.
It was even more difficult to reveal the fact that that ability was sage.
No one had the same power as Jeong Dae-sik.
His abilities were strange and strange.
If you pay money, you can become strong!
It was very realistic and fictional.
Didn’t Jeong Dae-sik, the party involved, also take time to accept that fact?
Of course, no matter what I said, other people couldn’t believe it.
Entropy or stores are not visible.
Even if you believe it, it’s a big deal.
No one could see what kind of trouble his ability, which was markedly different from others, would cause.
Since it is an unbelievable ability that I have never heard of in my life, I may be taken to a place such as the Awakening Management Office, the Special Ability Research Center, or the Shincheonji Church.
He vowed never to reveal this fact, and Jeong Dae-sik kept his mouth shut.
Even after killing the thorn spider, large species of monsters appeared several times.
Unlike the spiny spiders, they were only bigger in size, but there wasn’t much to see.
Most of them were grades 8 or 9, so they could be easily destroyed with just temporary crews.
I found a save point without any problems and took a break.
Jeong Dae-sik took out the provided convenience food and ate it, wiping the green blood of the spiny spider off his body with a wet tissue.
It was sticky, like melted caramel, and some of it was lumpy and hardened, making it very difficult to wipe off.
Seeing the scene, someone approached me and talked to me.
“Can I help you?”
When I looked up, I saw that it was the team leader of the assistant, Haejwa.
She was clad in robes imbued with all sorts of shamanic devices and wearing a pointed hat.
In addition to that, the flashy makeup on her face looked like a magician at first glance.
“Yes, thank you.”
At Jeong Dae-sik’s words, the wizard simply snapped his finger.
Something cool, perhaps magical, passed through his body, washing away all the green blood that had been on him.
Jeong Dae-sik said with pure admiration.
“How amazing.”
She blew a wink.
“It’s just a small feat.”
Then he reached out one hand and asked for a handshake.
“My name is Seol Yu-ran. Nice to meet you.”
“Oh, yes. Nice to meet you. My name is Jeong Dae-sik.”
Afraid to give a full name, Seol Yu-ran sat down next to Jeong Dae-sik.
And I started asking questions and waiting.
“When did you get the buffer ability?”
“I am naturally born with the ability to strengthen the power system.”
“Even if you’re a gangster-type person, all you have to do is take care of yourself? Transferring magical power to other people is another matter. If anyone is like Dae-Sik Jeong, most of the dealers from the gang-type should be able to act as a buffer as well. But, Mr. Jeong Dae-shik It’s rare to find someone who can play both positions together, right?”
It wasn’t just that, but Jeong Dae-sik didn’t boast about himself.
As long as he had decided to thoroughly hide his sage ability, there was nothing good about speaking long.
As Jeong Dae-sik was nodding his head dryly, another voice flew in from the other side.
“Hey, Seol Yu-ran. Are you planning to start making a mark already?”
“Before that, we come first.”
They were the two tanks who fought the thorn spider before Jeong Dae-sik.
Seol Yu-ran looked at him and frowned.
Either way, they each introduced themselves by reaching out and shaking hands.
“Hello, my name is Seong-il.”
“I’m Lee Gye-won.”
“Yeah, I’m Jeong Dae-sik.”
A man named Bae Woong-il grabbed Jeong Dae-sik’s hand and waved it.
However, a man named Lee Gye-won seemed to have a little trouble with Jeong Dae-sik.
It seemed that he regretted having looked down at Jeong Dae-sik earlier and looked down on him.
He scratched the back of the head and said with a humble expression.
“I can’t believe that you killed that thorn spider by yourself. You’re such a talented person, how come you haven’t been in any raid until now?”
When Jeong Dae-sik did not answer, Bae Woong-il noticed Lee Kye-won by stabbing him in the side.
“Isn’t that what’s important now?”
Lee Gye-won immediately saw Jeong Dae-sik and brought up the main topic.
“Before, when we were tanking, before you attacked. That’s when the aggro was scattered, right?”
“So I guess he ignored us and rushed over there?”
Jeong Dae-sik nodded his head at Bae Woong-il’s comments.
“Yes, I did.”
At those words, Bae Woong-il showed a look of surprise.
“The cashier and I are in the 5th grade. You say you are in the 6th grade? But the aggro was released because of you? That, doesn’t it make sense?”
Jeong Dae-sik answered his question roughly.
“It must have been because of the momentary increase in my attack power as it was strengthened.”
Then Seol Yu-ran intervened.
“At the same time, we also harvested buffs.”
“It’s true, it doesn’t make sense to lose aggro in battle.”
Bae Woong-il scratched the back of the head and asked again.
“Then you’ve never tanked before?”
“I’ve never tried it while running a raid.”
“Is that so? Then I’ll be able to play the role of a tank enough. There are only three positions!”
Bae Woong-il, who swallowed his admiration, cut off his words and Lee Gye-won opened his mouth.
“Wouldn’t it be better to be a tanker? I think tanking suits you better than deals or buffs.”
Before Jeong Dae-sik could even react, Seol Yu-ran frowned and protested.
“Wait, what are you doing? This isn’t a sign that you’re going to take this person to the Aquarius, is it?”
At Seol Yu-ran’s words, Bae Woong-il and Lee Gye-won looked at each other.
Then he shrugged his shoulders and replied.
“That’s for our team leader to decide.”
“I just saw you talking with Hwang Mi-gun over there.”
Seol Yu-ran got angry and walked away in the direction Lee Gye-won was beckoning.
After she disappeared, Jeong Dae-sik asked, unable to understand the situation.
“What do you mean by all this now?”
Hearing what he said, Bae Woong-il laughed.
“That’s right, the team leaders are competing to get you.”
“Mr. Hwang Mi-gun, you are saying that of course you will be in your team, but it looks like Seol Yu-ran is paying close attention, right?”
Seeing Dae-sik Jeong, who still didn’t understand, Boung-il said it was natural.
“If you leave here, there is a high chance that you will become an official member of our raid.”
Jeong Dae-sik hurriedly shook his head.
“Wait. I haven’t gotten an offer like that yet, so what do you mean?”
Lee Gye-won explained that he did not understand Jeong Dae-sik’s reaction.
“When you reached rank 6, you joined our raid as a temporary member, isn’t it just to get a chance to become a regular member?”
“Of course, it’s common to see a level 6 dealer or so, but very few people can play several positions at once. There’s a good chance you’ll get an official striker offer if you’re afraid to leave here. So the team leaders are all in a fuss. If we have it, we don’t have to beg from other teams.”
Bae Woong-il and Lee Gye-won said that in the case of a tank team or a dealer team, it was impossible not to notice the auxiliary team.
It was said that if you hated Buffer or Healer, you could be discriminated against.
However, if he had Jeong Dae-sik, who could be buffed, he would be free from that burden.
It was the same on the throne.
No matter how precious a buffer or healer was, they basically lacked combat ability.
Since they have no choice but to depend on other teams for their lives when it is decisive, if Jeong Dae-sik has excellent fighting skills, he can hold onto his worries and tie them down.
Therefore, it was said that from now on, when the official recruitment story has not materialized, they are fighting a nerve war to take Jeong Dae-sik.
In the Zodiac raid, Jeong Dae-sik, who had just entered the scene, had no choice but to be in a somewhat bewildered situation.
He frowned and said.
“I didn’t volunteer for this hunt to join the Zodiac raid.”
“Huh? Is it?”
“Why? Do you like our raid?”
Bae Woong-il and Lee Gye-won were shocked by Jeong Dae-sik’s reaction.
In the usual case, their guess was correct.
Zodiac Raids did not openly recruit full-fledged members.
Since all members were composed only of recommendation system, enlistment itself was impossible without connections and verification within the raid.
Therefore, it was highly likely that the temporary application for the Zodiac Raid was intended to examine the atmosphere of the raid and to appeal to one’s abilities to receive a scout offer.
But if that wasn’t the case, they would have no choice but to wonder if they were proud of being an official member of the Zodiac raid.
