chapter 1
Episode 1 Customization
[Lotto first prize winning 1.8 Billion won.]
[After-tax actual income of 1.2 Billion won.]
3 Years ago. When I won the lottery, a huge amount of money came into my bank account.
And I put 1 billion in US stocks.
[Profit rate +2210.86%]
It was a huge hit.
I became a person with assets worth 20 billion won in 3 years. From that day on, my life motto has been
It became a joke.
I am now 30 years old.
The remaining money is more than 20 billion won.
With this amount of money, there will be no problem in playing and eating for the rest of your life unless prices rise like crazy.
Even by nature, I am a human being who is not interested in anything other than media such as novels, comics, and games.
You don’t have to waste your money by being greedy about investing, and you don’t have to waste your money by getting addicted to gambling or entertainment.
Of course, I am not interested in donations or business, nor am I interested in marriage or dating.
I’m just killing time and surviving.
Until Todd Howard released Elder Scrolls 6.
And until an American AI company creates a girlfriend.
Until the technological singularity comes and the metaverse world opens.
For that reason, even though I am worth 20 billion won, my monthly living expenses do not exceed 1 million won.
The only luxury activity is buying anime goods or hardcover novels.
There is a game that I have invested the most time in over the past three years.
[Grand Hunter Academy]
Every single heroine seems alive.
A dynamic storyline that expands into various routes depending on the player’s choices.
The more you dig into it, the more attractive the worldview becomes.
No matter how much I love games, I have never been stuck on a game for this long, but it was always new because it gave me a new story and a new taste every time.
However, no matter how rich a game is, all of its content will eventually be consumed at some point.
[Challenge achievement rate 100.0%.]
I had completed all the challenges just yesterday.
Nevertheless, the reason for doing one more episode.
[Hidden DLC has been unlocked by completing all challenges.]
This was due to the existence of unexpected hidden content.
I pressed the start new game button without hesitation.
[Please create a character to play.]
“Oh.”
Originally, this game is a game where you select and play a playable character that has already been designed.
It looks like you can customize the playable character directly in the hidden DLC.
“It would be nice to have a new episode.”
If there was one thing that was disappointing about this game, it was that you couldn’t create your own character.
No matter how attractive the characters are, there is a thirst that cannot be quenched if you cannot create your own character.
Even this thirst is quenched in the end.
It is definitely a game worth playing in a new round.
I moved the mouse to the character creation window.

───────────────────
The character’s appearance appears in the center, and the character’s stats and characteristics are lined up on the left and right.
“What concept should we make it with?”
Actually, I’ve already played most of the concepts with playable characters.
Not only stereotypes such as warrior, wizard, assassin, and supporter, but also unique plays such as one-man army, pure tank, and one-shot nuker.
Is there anything else you haven’t played? .
“Let’s try it as an extreme king.”
It is not that there are late-stage Wanggui characters among playable characters, but Wanggui was a Wanggui whose role and limitations were clear.
If the damage was strong, the tank was weak, and if the tank was strong, the damage was weak.
Characters with full damage tank performance were somewhat ambiguous, and all other characters had weaknesses.
“Let’s create a character who can do everything by himself, including tank, damage, heal, buff, and even CC.”
If he can overcome his initial weakness, he can aim for a higher level than any other character in the latter half of the game, perhaps even the level of a god.
The concept for this episode has been decided.
I started adding all kinds of debuff characteristics without even looking at it.
Severe obesity, necrotic dermatitis, hunchback, club feet, twisted arms, weak constitution, insensitivity to mana, man-eating parasites, severe tinnitus, one-eyed, terminal cancer, hair loss, insomnia, etc…….
Every time one of the debuff characteristics that seriously interfere with play was added, the character’s appearance became noticeably ugly.
When the last debuff feature was added, I was impressed by its appearance.
“Wow… Won’t you die as soon as this starts?”
The skin appears to be boiling with dark red color, the facial features are buried in the swollen skin, the eyes have no light, the head is missing in an ugly way, and the limbs and torso are distorted.
Abomination…. Ghoul….
He looks more like an undead monster than a player character.
It didn’t seem strange at all if he died right from the start.
However, thanks to the numerous stacking of debuff characteristics, the bonus points increased enormously.
With this point, the first thing to be added was decided without even looking at it.
[Challenge “All the knowledge in the world” Perk! 《Eye of Providence》 added.]
The Eye of Providence, which allows you to see all the information in this world within the limits of magical power.
[Challenge “Multiverse Traveler” Privilege! 《Dimension Store》 is added.]
From S-class characteristics such as Mana Blessing and Sword Saint to cheat skills such as Heavenly Demon Magic, Ancient Magic Engineering, and Dragon Words, as well as mythological and legendary items such as Excalibur, Sage’s Elixir, and Necronomicon.
A dimension store where you can freely purchase anything as long as you have dimension currency.
[Challenge “Incarnation of the Gods” Privilege! Add 《The Favorite》.]
A favored person who not only increases the favorability of all constellations that sponsor dimensional currency and various items, characteristics, and skills to a perfect score of 100, but also increases the luck stat by ’50’.
In the original game, three special features were added that could only be obtained in the very late stages by satisfying all kinds of conditions and hard work.
The growth mechanism of this concept is simple.
1. I use the eye of providence and my accumulated knowledge to grab the hidden piece.
2. You receive support from the constellations with all kinds of characteristics, skills, items, and dimensional currency.
3. Use the dimension store to erase debuffs and purchase all kinds of cheats.
“If you can get through the beginning, it’s a real big jam.”
However, 3 fraudulent characteristics were added, so the points accumulated at great cost soon amounted to less than 20%.
“This 20% is….”
First of all, I raised my will stat to ’30’.
If you have this many debuff characteristics, there is a possibility that you will suffer mental breakdown as soon as you start and die without being able to do anything.
To prevent this, you need a willpower strong enough to outwit even elite special forces.
And all the remaining points were invested in intelligence.
Even if you increase your willpower and increase your activity level, if your intelligence is low, you are a dead fish.
If your intelligence is low, the efficiency of all your activities will be ruined.
So the final result is….

───────────────────
In order to be more immersed in the game, I named the character my real name.
“It’s a masterpiece.”
Right now, he looks no different from a rotting corpse, but once he gets past the halfway mark, he will be much stronger than the basic playable characters.
The appearance will also undergo a complete transformation to match it.
Imagining the character armed with all kinds of hidden pieces, constellation items, and otherworldly skills, I felt a stronger sense of anticipation than any other episode.
“Let’s just skip the beginning and sleep.”
I simply set up the initial settings and carefully pressed the start game button.
[Warning! DLC mode cannot be saved or loaded on Hardcore difficulty.]
[Warning! Players are given only one life and cannot be revived if they die.]
[Warning! Once you start the game, you cannot return to the original world until you clear the final quest.]
“What is the concept? This.”
I quickly read the warning messages that popped up in my mind and ignored them without paying attention.
I think it’s an interesting concept, but it just feels like a hassle to have to click one more time.
I pressed the start game button without thinking much.
At that moment, a blindingly bright light covered the room in white.
