It was surprising that the status window Leo saw in the web novel appeared before his eyes, but he didn't have to touch it one by one.
Of course, it's not that the function didn't work, but the UI had a way of moving as Leo imagined. It was too much of a benefit for a feature that only cost 500 coins.
"It was foresight."
In particular, the biggest merit was that Leo could deal with the unexpected accident of not being able to use his cell phone or losing it.
Even though he only bought one item, his heart felt as if he had eaten a bowl of noodles after a cold winter day.
'This is why it's good to give away everything, like the market's kindness.'
Honestly, it would have been nice if there had only been coins in the package, but it wouldn't have felt this good.
Now that we're on the subject, Leo decided to try out the beginner equipment set and random skill acquisition ticket that came with his Starter package.
[Would you like to use the beginner equipment set?] [Y/N]
[Please select your desired occupation before using the beginner equipment set.]
[Warrior] [Archer] [Mage] [Assassin] [Blacksmith] [Priest]
"...You're so kind."
Leo was planning on using the Mage class.
With the buffs the app gave him right now, and the 8th Circle Archmage being his teacher, how could he choose anything else like that?
That's why he hoped for something related to Mage as soon as he saw the beginner equipment set and the random skill acquisition ticket.
'If I had gotten something like an axe from the equipment set, I would have gone straight to the potato market.'
Mage-related weapons and artifacts weren't easy for someone like Leo with no connections to obtain.
Even if he had money, he had to go through a lot of complicated procedures to obtain them.
[You selected Mage.]
[The Basic Mage equipment set will be stored in your inventory.]
Leo opened his inventory with high expectations.
[Inventory] [Assistant Monocle] [Magic Ring] [Wood Wand]
There were three pieces of equipment in his inventory.
[Assistant Monocle] [Rank: Rare] [Visualizes the flow of magical power]
[Magic Ring] [Rank: Rare] [Slightly increases magical power]
[Wood Wand] [Rank: Rare] [Casting time is slightly reduced, magical power is slightly increased]
To someone who can't cry because I'm so emotionless, "I'm really about to cry."
All Leo could say was, "This is crazy."
All of the equipment was ridiculous. A beginner's equipment set? They say it's beginner equipment, but if you go to a department store and try to buy them, they're all broken items that cost thousands of dollars.
Even if Leo had money, he couldn't buy them just because you want.
However, he didn't know exactly what this monocle meant by visualizing the flow of magic power.
"Hmm... I don't know what the difference is even if I try it on myself?"
At first glance, it was just a monocle with a neat design.
Still, judging from the fact that it was a rare grade like other equipment, it must be useful in some way.
Leo could do a precise performance test later, but for now, he decided to take a look at the random skill acquisition ticket.
[Would you like to use the random skill acquisition ticket?] [Y/N]
[Y]
[I have confirmed that the first match is complete.] [The grade of the random skill acquisition ticket will increase!]
...What?
[I have confirmed that you chose the wizard profession from the beginner equipment set.] [The range will be narrowed down to wizard-only skills.]
[In progress...]
Leo was momentarily taken aback by the sudden, super fun hidden arcade-like situation.
[Weakness detection] [Grade: Epic] [You can identify weaknesses.]
Leo screamed at the screen that appeared before his eyes, desperate for the house to disappear. His frustration grew louder until the person downstairs started banging on the front door, complaining about the noise.
***
After roughly coaxing the man downstairs from the door, Leo decided to learn a little more about the skill called Weakness Detection.
Leo wasn't really worried about how to use it. As soon as he acquired the skill, the skill's usage became a part of his head's knowledge as if he had known it from the beginning.
He went to the mirror.
"Weakness Detection."
As soon as Leo said the skill, sparkling effects appeared all over his body shown by the mirror. The effects sparkled the brightest around his head and heart. The other parts also sparkled, but not as much as the previous two.
"This would be better used on demons than humans."
Humans' weaknesses all seemed the same, but demons often had unexpected weaknesses, so Leo could use Weakness Detection to his advantage. If he could work as a wizard and hunt demons, he could make a lot of money.
Just thinking about it made him smile.
"Now all that's left is the golden random box."
Leo couldn't help but laugh as he said that. It couldn't be helped. Just thinking about the beginner equipment set and skill coupons, it was more beneficial than he imagined.
It wasn't even an ordinary random box, but a golden random box.
"Oh, isn't that a unique grade thing that's going to appear? That would be too much of a steal."
At that moment, when Leo's anticipation broke through the graph and reached Mars, he opened the random box.
[Would you like to open the golden random box?] [Y/N]
[Y]
[Opening.....]
[Tip: Anything can come out of the random box.]
Leo waited for the box to open while looking at the tip that didn't seem like a tip.
[The golden random box has been opened.]
It wasn't even 5 seconds in real time, but it felt like 10 minutes had passed.
"Oh, come to think of it, does the time I spent on the other side apply to Earth as well?"
While Leo was looking away, a sudden window appeared to free.
[Barambarambam! Shop Item Random Exchange Ticket has Appeared]
[Shop Item Random Exchange Ticket] [Grade: ??]
[You can randomly obtain one of the products currently registered in the shop. The grade of the item you get increases randomly.]
