Go to the Past

CH 4: Slit

Siwoo, I immediately saw the house that suddenly became quiet and empty. It feels so strange, like a haunted house. But jude, now focus on the main goal. I need to find out about [Shop] and wriggle what I can get from there.

I came out of my house and checked the map on my HP. I need to find out where the info about [Shop] is. After a while, I found the location.

"Ah, here yes. The place is not too far from here," I murmured while checking the distance.

I started walking towards that place. The quiet and dark streets made the atmosphere even more seremes, but I still dare to go forward. I'm used to this kind of situation after being a hunter.

Finally, I got to a place that was prepared for the info about [Shop]. The place looks ordinary, like a small shop. I went inside and was immediately accepted by a guard.

"Welcome! Can I help you?" ask the guard kindly.

I grinned and said, "Yes, I'm looking for information about [Shop]. Is there anything I can tell you?"

The guard nodded as he took the brochure from the table. "Of course, this is a brochure containing info about [Shop]. Hope help!"

I said thank you, and then I sat down at one of the desks in the store to read the brochure. I read seriously, took important notes, and checked the prices of goods in [Shop].

After I finished reading, I looked at the list of goods and their prices with full calculation. I have to save a lot if I want to buy the things I need. But I'm sure I can definitely spend that much money with my talent and expertise.

I stood up, ready to leave the shop with a strong determination. I have to do everything I can to collect money and open new cracks in my life. New challenges and adventures await me out there.

"Yoshi, hajimemasho!" I muttered as I stepped out of the store with vigor.

I'm really happy that this narrow studio feels a little wider.

After the experiment with [Inventory], I wanted to see what I should check next.

Apparently, a message appeared that said that [Everything Shop] was not yesterday.

'Shop!'

Nervous!

The cramped studio suddenly grew rapidly. I felt a bit dizzy looking at the scene that continued to grow around me.

Unknowingly, I closed my eyes.

Dig-it!

"Her...!"

Before my eyes, a vast universe unfolded.

Tring-!

[You have entered the store for the first time.]

90% off on first purchase. Only applies this time.

I opened my mouth and looked around. It feels like I'm in space again. The stars were twinkling everywhere.

If you look closely, all the starlight is actually objects. Countless objects that filled the heaven and earth, shone brightly as they floated everywhere.

Very lovely.

Siu opened his mouth and was mesmerized by the sight before him. Countless things in the infinite universe... I began to realize the potential of my own superpowers.

"By the way, the 90% discount is only valid for this time? Write..."

You have confirmed your karma. The currency in the [Everything Store] is Karma.

the Karma Remaining: 1,526

'1.526...'

Siu subconsciously picked up an object that floated in the air.

[Elixir]: 5,000 Karma

heals all wounds and curses. During the recovery process, the body condition also improves. There are no side effects.

"Her...!"

Siwoo's eyes widened. The explanation was simple, but it was a truly incredible treasure.

A treasure that could take you to the market and sell it for tens or hundreds of billions of dollars. I was sure that if I met the owner well, I would earn over 100 billion won.

'Of course I didn't mean that.'

A treasure like this would only be a disaster if it was possessed by those who were helpless.

Siu looked at the elixir and thought.

'This kind of stuff requires 5,000 karmas...'

It seems that I was very lucky to get 1,500 karmas at once.

Siu considered what items to buy. I want to maximize the 90% discount opportunity%.

'Is there a skill?'

I want to get something fundamentally stronger than an object lost after being used once.

A piece of paper was placed in front of me.

[Higher Boneless]: 10,000 Karma

[Medium Physical Strength]: 1,000 Karma

[Blink]: 1,000 Karmas

...

...

...

Interesting choice that makes you want to buy it right now.

"After this..."

With 1,526 karma, you can buy up to 15,000 karma.

"What I need most right now is..."

I looked at the distance in front of my eyes, left [Senior Mugol] and thought.

Then I realized it. The one I need most.

'Skill related mental resilience with a price below 15,000 karma.'

Connecting with the life of a child who cannot live for 10 years, his personality changes, even if only for a moment. Since there is no guarantee that this will not happen in the future, mental protection-related skills are an urgent priority.

After all, there was no great risk even though I died in my previous life... Despite thinking about it again, this was a mental endurance related skill.

[Mental Protection]: [Special Price] 15,000 Karma

immunity to mental contamination. It applies to all living beings.

The explanation is simple, but I like it a lot. Moreover, the "Price special" made me feel that [Everything Store] also recommended this technique.

'Actually, how much does it cost?'

A skill that looked extremely expensive sold for 15,000 karma.

"Wow, that's amazing."

I almost whistled.

Fortunately, I can buy it since "awaken". I thank the little boy who asked if it was a sword stick or what.

Buy immediately.

- 90% discount is given.

- Buy [Mental Protection] by paying 1,500 Karma.

- This is a passive skill. The effect was felt immediately.

My head feels fresh. I was afraid of the many things around me, but now it was gone.

It feels as comfortable as being at home.

'OK.'

[Iron Sword]: 20 Karma

- An iron sword made with automatic healing magic.

[Minimum Potion]: 5 Karma

- Special herbs for injuries.

Siu came out of the shop and looked around.

I stared at the scene of the universe constantly expanding and shrinking in an instant, as if fascinated.

Sussuk-g!

The universe filled with objects fused into a single point in an instant. At some point, Siu realizes that he is in his own home.

Dig-it!

"Hwiyu~"

Even looking at such a majestic scene right in front of my eyes, I did not feel dizzy. Seeing that I still remained focused, the effect of [Mental Protection] was quite good.

Growlings

I skipped breakfast and felt hungry.

Siwoo roughly sprinkled the three-minute curry over the rice and heated it in the microwave.

I whispered while watching the microwave oven run.

'Skills'

[Skill List]

[Inventory (Lv.1)], [Low Boneless Bone], [Mental Protection]

The corner of Siu's mouth was curved. To be able to have this after "awaken" a day... I was looking forward to the day-to-day life to come, and just looking at it made me feel satisfied.

Ding-!

The sound of the microwave oven.

'Let's eat first.'

I'll eat curry and think about what to do today.

***

- 720,000 won

Siwoo looked at his bank account balance and was confused. If this were the case, after paying the rent, there would be barely a single cent left.

'I need to make some money first...'

I was worried about the immediate cost of living because I had invested all my money on equipment. And the most common is Hunter going into the crack to make money.

maintenance time: 20:23

Third-grade Hunter Park Jin-soo lives in about 20 hours.

Park Jin-soo is a pretty good monster hunter, different from the reputation of his third class. It's a pity that its potential is only taken so easily.

"Now, let's just unplug it."

Siwoo open his pinter phone and start the application.

Today he went into the gap.

He's looking for a loophole using an application from the Hunter Association.

Then, he found a gap that he really liked.

"Class gap F... This is I like very much."

Take a taxi for about 30 minutes. The size of the gap is very small, so it can be overcome by itself.

The mini F class gap.

This is the lowest level gap that can be handled with ordinary people who have not been awakened and have enough equipment.

No problem for Siwoo whose body has been strengthened by magical powers.

We get ready and go.

*

Air breaks like cracked glass.

There's a portal that connects to somewhere, like it's really cool.

There it is, 'gap', so many monsters that become enemies of humans.

If the core of the gap is destroyed or the boss monster dies, the gap is also immediately lost.

The one who woke up who caught up and killed those monsters, kept getting his side stuff, his name was 'Hunter'.

If the gap is left unattended, monsters can flood into the real world, so they must be eliminated.

No wonder the government is gagungin the Hunters, so the best job.

*

Fitting again the decks of the class F gap, there is an associate staff who came to us.

He's an ordinary man, not an awakened Hunter.

He took care of the body and said.

"Hello. You're Hunter Siwoo Choi, right?"

"Yes, really."

Siwoo greeted him and gave him the registration card to wake up.

Tuut

Association staff scan registration cards use scanners and flip them again.

"Eh... By the way, you want to go in alone? If this is your first time in, will I want to start a team for you?"

The staff is a bit hesitant about squirming Choi Si-woo's equipment. The hunter had a not so good reputation, so he was careful.

But, the same confirmed info the scanner says he's a newcomer who just woke up a few days ago.

After all, the equipment also looks very new. Not long ago dipake.

The staff is worried, because the new hunter who just woke up like to recklessly enter the gap without fear and eventually become a corpse.

It is better for him if Choi Si-woo does not react like this when he was young and use the equipment.

Siwoo smiled and raised his hand.

"Oh, it's okay. I have been a porter for 3 years. It's not the first time I've been in a crack."

Even a porter will not die in the gap kayak gini after three years. At worst, they can escape.

The expression of the staff who had been willing to take care of the corpse today was somewhat improved.

"Ah. sorry yes. Good luck."

"No problem. I'm ready."

Siwoo greeted each other and directly entered the gap.

He checks his gear and gets ready to enter the gap.

Siwoo took out the sword he bought at the store and tried to enter the crack, but still hesitated a bit.

"This sword can enter the gap, can't it?"

Materials that are not from inside the gap cannot enter the gap. Fall outside that gap.

So, the equipment inside the gap was hargOK, understandably. Here is the version that uses relaxed and slang Indonesian:
