4 Unexpected Visit

In this past few days, Yu Jin-Ho had been clearing F-rank dungeons one after another like a madman. He puts other high ranked Hunters to shame. The only time he stopped is when he finally cleared all the F-rank dungeons in the area. The accumulated rewards he made in his raid was quite a huge sum.

It is now time for Jin-Ho to leave his old apartment since he now has money to live in a much better one. Jin-Ho chose to live in an apartment building near where the association's located at to make it efficient for him and save time going there back and forth.

The System has a new message. Yu Jin-Ho somehow managed to accumulate enough experience points from his solo raids to reach yet another level.

[Host has leveled up by 1]

[System functions have been unlocked]

Jin-Ho wants to find out if his abnormal stats distribution had been fixed. When he looked at his own stats...he didn't know whether he should be happy or disappointed.

His stats multiplied yet again and by a whole lot that is. Jin-Ho more or less expected this result either way.

'Aaahh...this is so stupid. The System is totally bugged.'

To ease out his mind, Jin-Ho puts his attention to check the System's new function.

"System...what function had been currently unlocked?"

[Boss Monsters killed will have a low probability of dropping items]

[Host can now accumulate mana]

Jin-Ho was somehow relieved that these one's seem to be normal. He really thought it would be something absurd again.

Seeing as Jin-Ho didn't have any mana despite his stats being freakishly overpowered, he asked the System how he can gain mana.

[To gain mana...host has to absorb mana stones from monsters]

Yu Jin-Ho consulted the System on what it meant by 'mana stone'. After a little while of information gathering...Jin-Ho finally had his answer. It seems that a few selected monsters have mana stones stored inside their bodies. All he needs to do is absorb one to instill it's mana unto his own body.

Every humans have mana in their bodies, they take it from the environment unconsciously but it's only a small amount. However...Hunters are different. Since they already have mana even before the time they awaken...it just naturally grows over time but Jin-Ho's strange constitition blocks his body to regulate mana naturally that's why he needs to awaken it by injecting it directly using a source which is the mana stone inside the monsters.

Jin-Ho also noticed that his title previous title changed.

"What changed in my title...surely it wouldn't be forty percent more damage this time right?"

[Title Effect: Attacks will deal 40% more damage to humanoid type monsters]

'I just had to jinx it...again.'

When Yu Jin-Ho was taking his time looking through the System...his phone ringed. He took a look on who called and to his surprise...it's his little sister.

Jin-Ho picked up the call.

"What made you call your big brother...Hana?"

"Don't play dumb with me brother! Where are you...your apartment is practically empty."

Jin-Ho hadn't been meeting his family for over half a year now so he forgot to tell them he moved to another location.

To solve the problem at hand...Jin-Ho then told his sister his new apartment address over the phone.

Yu Hana was doubtful if what Jin-Ho said was true.

"You...a jobless good-for-nothing brother live in one of the most luxurious and expensive apartment in Seoul? Don't lie to me."

Even though Jin-Ho is already so strong...those piercing words are more than enough for him to take significant damage from his sister's sharp mouth.

After a few arguments over the phone...Jin-Ho somehow managed to convince his sister he does live there.

A knock on Jin-Ho's door can be heard from inside. He quickly opened it and there stands outside a girl with short black hair wearing a high school uniform.

She is undoubtedly Yu Jin-Ho's little sister. He was quite happy to see one of his family after a long time.

"Hana...you're here. Come inside."

Jin-Ho's sister looked at him with a confused look on her face.

"Sorry, wrong room."

Yu Hana quickly bowed her head and tried to walk out but Jin-Ho grabbed her arm to prevent her from leaving.

"Where are you going Hana...it's me your dearest big brother."

"Huh?! There's no way that idiotic brother of mine could look that cool."

Jin-Ho limped down still holding Yu Hana's arms.

"You're really hurting my feelings right now."

"Can you prove you're really my brother?"

As a last resort...Jin-Ho whispered to his sister one of the most embarrassing memories from her chilhood which cost him a kick in the groin.

Jin-Ho might be strong now but it still doesn't make him immune from having Yu Jin-Ho junior crushed by his sister.

"I told you not to mention that thing again!"

"B..but it's the only way I can think of to make you believe me."

"Too bad for you...I don't like it."

With Jin-Ho finally proving his identity...his sister interrogated about the vast change that has happened to him.

"So...mind telling me all that's happened in details?"

Jin-Ho then told Yu Hana that he bacame a Hunter just a few weeks ago and his pay is big that's why he can afford to live in such an expensive apartment.

"Are you telling me you awakened?"

"Y..yes, I think."

"But mom won't agree to this!"

Jin-Ho pleaded for his sister to keep it secret from their mom because their mother is opposed for anyone in the family to become a Hunter.

The reason for that is because Jin-Ho's father is a Hunter himself and he also died as one. That's why their mother would not want any of them to meet the same fate as their father.

Yu Hana agreed to keep Jin-Ho's job being a Hunter a secret to their mother in exchange that Jin-Ho will have to always be careful.

Now that that's done...Jin-Ho's change in appearance is next. Yu Jin-Ho just told his sister that it's the effect of his awakening. Since the System is the one responsible for it...he's more or less telling the truth.

Since Yu Hana's purpose for coming is now solved...it's time for her to leave. Jin-Ho escorted her outside until she reached the station.

"I'm going to go now big brother."

"Yeah...send mom my regards."

"Remember to visit mom sometimes...she misses you."

"I will."

With that...Yu Hana hopped into the train and Jin-Ho came back to his apartment
