3 Leveled Up

The System screen appeared in front of Yu Jin-Ho with a new message.

[Forced Body Alteration successful]

"System...how long was I out for?"

[You have been unconscious for approximately 63 hours and 4 seconds]

'So that means I've been laying here for almost three days?!'

Jin-Ho then asked the System if his stats had already been distributed after the alteration.

[the host's stats have been updated]

"Display stats."

The System laid out Jin-Ho's stats prior to his level. Jin-Ho was taken aback when he saw his new stats.

Host Name: Yu Jin-Ho

Class: None

Level: 2

HP: 2,570/2,570

MP: 0/0

Strength: 104

Agility: 80

Endurance: 92

Dexterity: 34

Title: Goblins Slayer

Skills: None

Special Skill: |Error|

Jin-Ho can't believe his stats went up by a whole lot just by reaching level two. This is truly not what he expected it to be in the slightest. Yu Jin-Ho then questioned the System in confusion.

"Hey System...are my stats supposed to go up this much just by leveling up once?"

[Negative: System cannot answer]

This made Jin-Ho confused even more than he already is. If other novel System protagonists somehow get to see this...they might just cough up blood in jealousy.

'Isn't this kind of cheating?'

Jin-Ho looked at his stats again...it seems that the 'Error' on his special skill is still there. He suspects that it has something to do with his abnormal stats.

Jin-Ho's stats suddenly increased several fold so it got him thinking.

The reason Yu Jin-Ho had to go through the process of altering his body is because his former physique can't possibly handle the sudden massive increase in stats all at once.

Looking his stats again, Jin-Ho found out that he gained a title.

"System...what does my title do?"

[The title 'Goblin Slayer' can make the host inflict 20℅ more damage to humanoid type monsters]

The 'Title's' effect is quite a huge help for Jin-Ho since there are many different humanoid types of monsters in the lower rank portals. This will make his hunt much more efficient.

All this increase in strength is very beneficial for Yu Jin-Ho as it would make his hunt for monsters much easier and lessen the probability of him risking his life inside the dungeon.

After a while of checking his stats, Jin-Ho went to the sink to wash his face. As he dried himself with a towel, he caught a glimple of himself in the mirror which got his attention. It seems that as part of his body alteration...his eyes also changed it's color. His usually black pupils turned scarlet red. Jin-Ho is quite amazed at what the alteration has done to his body overall.

With three days of no eating, Jin-Ho was very hungry. He finished up a meal that can feed at least ten people at once.

Due to Yu Jin-Ho gaining some height and muscles...his usual clothes no longer able to fit him. Since Jin-Ho has money to spare, he used his free time to buy himself some clothes that can match his new appearance.

With that thought in mind...Yu Jin-Ho went to a local clothes store near his apartment.

As he was shopping, Yu Jin-Ho got constant gazes from women at the store which made him more or less uncomfortable. His shopping was a bit rushed as his instincts told him that he could get eaten at any time if he stays any longer.

Yu Jin-Ho went back to his apartment with his new clothes in hand. He quickly dressed himself up. Jin-Ho sports a skin tight black long sleeve shirt accompanied with slick black pants and leather shoes. Jin-Ho didn't bother to cut his hair as he just let it flow down his back.

Upon arriving to the association's building, Jin-Ho was about to go inside when he came across Gyo Yongsun. At first Yongsun didn't recognize Jin-Ho due to his new appearance. He kept looking at Jin-Ho and finally realized that it's him.

"Jin-Ho...is that really you?"

Gyo Yongsun was quite perplexed looking at the new Jin-Ho. Only little bit of his features from before remained.

This sudden meeting felt really awkward for Jin-Ho. He just replied with a half-assed greeting.

"F..fancy meeting you here Yongsun."

Yongsun complimented Jin-Ho's new appearance.

"We've only not seen each other for three days and you already look like a completely different person. I barely recognized you."

Jin-Ho couldn't possibly reveal that it's the doing of the System so he just tried to avoid answering.

"W..well, some things happened here and there."

Yongsun is actually going to participate in another raid. This time it's a D-rank dungeon. He wants to invite Jin-Ho but he declined. Yongsun then bid farewell and left to prepare for his raid. Jin-Ho on the other hand came looking for a quest to do himself.

Yu Jin-Ho deliberately declined Gyo Yonsun's invitation since he wants do do a solo raid. With Jin-Ho being a D-rank...he is now eligible to take on an F-rank dungeon solo.

Hunters are can be given permission to solo a raid as long as that Hunter is two ranks higher than the dungeon.

The reason for Jin-Ho choosing to go solo is to test just how much stronger he's gotten without the disturbance and knowledge of others and doing a solo quest is the best option.

Jin-Ho went to the reception area to take his quest. The same thing happened with the receptionist as she was also surprised by Yu Jin-Ho's unexpected change.

Jin-Ho had a conversation exactly the same as he had with Gyo Yongsun. After that...he finally got a quest to clear an F-rank dungeon entrance that materialized near Yongsan-Gu.

A dungeon's rank can be calculated using a certain device. If the light on the device turn white...it's an F-rank dungeon. Yellow for E...orange for D...blue for C...purple for B...red for A...and lastly, black for an S-rank dungeon.

Inside the dungeon where Jin-Ho went in...there are already several goblin soldiers on sight.

Yu Jin-Ho find it strange. He doesn't have the confidence and is hesitant to take on these monsters before but now...they don't intimidate him at all. On the contrary, he's even quite excited to bury his blade on their bodies.

A goblin soldier spotted Jin-Ho and dashed towards him with a club.

['Goblins Slayer' title effect activated]

Jin-Ho held his dagger and parried the goblin's attack. While the goblin is airborne after the parry Jin-Ho grabbed it's head and smashed it on the ground. The sheer force of the smash made the ground shake a bit and created a small crater in the process.

The goblin's head got blasted to oblivon. Initially...Jin-Ho only planned to immobilize the goblin soldier by smashing it's body on the ground and stab it with his dagger afterwards. This different outcome is the least of what he expected at all.

Jin-Ho was speechless...he one shotted a goblin soldier and what's more, he didn't even use all his strength to do so. He mowed down the remaining goblin soldiers like they're nothing. In just a few minutes...he completely cleared the dungeon without dropping a single sweat.

The receptionist was agape by Jin-Ho's impressive performance but he didn't stop there...Jin-Ho went and cleared four more F-rank portals soon after.
