But that's all holy relics. The survival story of a tembal hunter who ruined his talent. Start now.
Episode 6
From the start, he proposed a sum of 30 billion won, but Lee Hyun didn't think it was a waste at all.
Of course, 30 billion is not a small amount of money, but it is because it falls short of the profits earned by S-class hunters, the representatives of the other four guilds.
'Of course this won't be the end. I'm sure he'll ask for something else.'
look
Not to mention liking the sound of 30 billion won, not even a single expression on his face has changed.
That means that the man knows exactly his worth.
'I guess so. Even the guild leaders are on TV... … .'
Unless you're an idiot, you should know your worth.
"and… … ."
The moment Lee Hyun tried to add a condition when there was no reaction.
Whoaaaaagh!
"Kuheugh… … !"
A reverberation began to pour out like mad around Suhyeon.
The reverberation that flowed slowly took over the president's office in an instant, as if it had never happened.
"All, of course, this is not all."
What does Hunter care about the most?
Isn't that a tax?
Those who make astronomical money every year also pay astronomical taxes.
However, that is the story of a hunter who entered a private guild.
"Hunter's tax rate is 5 percent... … ."
Layer upon layer of reverberation engulfed my calves as if a cloud had appeared.
"… … I will give you a full exemption."
Considering that the hunters' tax rate was 40 percent, it was a huge benefit.
However, Suhyeon's reaction was still sluggish.
Lee Hyun gnashed his teeth at the reverberation that continued to overflow.
'Shit… … . You're greedy too.'
But what can I do?
At least in this contract, he is the absolute best.
Normal people wouldn't pay attention to it, but if you're an S-class hunter, you'll have to pull it over to your side somehow.
"I will provide you with a private car, and an apartment in Gangnam's premier sanctuary."
Of course he knows.
That these physical things can't easily move his mind.
Look at that.
Aren't they laughing at the absurdity and exhaling reverberation?
'after… … .'
Suhyeon's unchanging attitude raised the eyebrows at the head of the association.
Lee Hyun, who was contemplating with his eyes closed, spoke as if he had made up his mind.
"I will give you an indefinite rental of all artifacts owned by the association."
"yes? An artifact?"
yes!
Suhyun's reaction made Lee Hyun scream.
"Tongue, president of the association, no matter how much it is… … !"
"Then who will use it? Should I give it to those 4 guilds over there? Or give it to the Sword Saint who won't even look?"
"Yeah, that's right, but… … ."
what is an artifact
Even if you only have one, it is a magic tool that can have power comparable to that of a high-ranking hunter.
Weapons and magic tools in the gate become powder the moment they come out and disappear.
There were no exceptions whether subspaces were used or special processing was performed.
The only things that can be taken out of the gate are the resources collected from inside and the corpses of monsters.
In this situation, it can be said that the existence of artisans and workshops is very important.
It was because it was much more effective when making weapons with high-quality materials from the gate than modern weapons.
That is why the value of famous and skilled artisans soared to the ceiling.
Artifacts were created by such people with extremely low probability using their crafting skills.
Physical equipment or weapons can be processed and made into normal weapons.
However, since artifacts are magical tools that contain magical powers, they can only be created with crafting skills.
However, this artifact is extremely difficult to make even with the production skills of world-class artisans.
If you try it 1,000 times, it's an average if one pops up.
Of course, if the crafting fails, the materials that go into it will perish.
However, if you try to recreate an artifact that has been successfully crafted with the same material, the crafting skill itself will not be activated.
That's why an artifact becomes a single magic tool with a unique ability.
Really, the cost performance is insanely bad, but there is only one reason why I prefer this artifact nonetheless.
Because the effect is so great.
Among the 10 artifacts that exist on the Korean Peninsula, there are three artifacts in the Association.
In fact, right before Seoul was invaded due to a dungeon break in the past, Lee Hyun had a record of protecting Seoul using those three artifacts.
Of course, as a mage, Lee Hyun's abilities are outstanding.
However, Lee Hyun can assert.
Had it not been for the Artifact at that time, it would have swept all the way to Gyeonggi-do instead of blocking Seoul.
The artifact has the power to transform a high-ranking wizard into a war god.
To that extent, the power of the artifact was beyond imagination.
However, recently, the artifact was resting in the warehouse.
The reason was so simple.
There is no owner!
As it is a national treasure that costs hundreds of billions of dollars each, the minimum condition is an S-class hunter.
However, the other four guilds are fighting each other and fighting with the association.
In the meantime, lend them an artifact?
Isn't this like asking for something to be eaten?
Then, what about the Sword Saints who do not belong to either side?
He does not send any requests to the Society, let alone artifacts.
However, when Lee Hyun himself went out to the scene carrying the artifact, the heavy workload of the association made him sit down.
So let the valuable treasures rot in the warehouse for a while.
The right person named Suhyeon appeared.
Even among S-rank hunters, his power is clearly above the level.
Isn't it a pure hunter who didn't even enter any faction!
If a hunter like this only came to the association, what could they give you?
At first, Lee Hyun also thought it was too much, but as he went on, he realized that there was no one more suitable than Soo-hyun.
Suhyeon's expression softened a little, but the reverberation still continued to flow.
'Hmm... … . Do you have anything more to add?'
Now, what I'm trying to catch with money is sewage.
Now that it's an 'association', we have to give what we can.
Lee Hyun's eyes hurt from the red reverberation, so he closed his eyes and pondered.
A really stupid suggestion though.
"I will not ask hunters for the 'hunting duty' that is compulsory."
hunting duty.
Excluding hunters with special crafting skills, it is a duty to go around the gate five times a month.
Whether you're a porter or dismembering a monster, you only need to enter the gate five times a month.
In a way, it was a basic duty to be followed as a Hunter, but it didn't mean much at the moment.
It's because there's no way that guys like S-class hunters ignore the gate.
What is the meaning of the duty of hunting when you can easily wipe it out and accumulate enormous wealth with that resource?
Even as the four major guilds competed by handling more gates, it was practically a nameless duty.
Lee Hyun also laughed because he knew this.
'This is what I thought of... … . I also lost my senses... … .'
"Okay, let's make a contract."
'This is how it works.'
* * *
Suhyeon was in a somewhat confused situation.
At the end of 30 billion, I was splitting the room, and conditions continued to be added.
It allows you to rent a house, a car, and even an artifact for 30 billion tax-free.
It was so good that I accidentally let go of Gram's control, but what about it?
Things worked out like crazy!
It's different from the miserable life I've lived so far.
Even the head of a country's association made all sorts of conditions to scout him!
'S-class hunters live with this kind of treatment!'
Even if you don't say anything, the benefits continue to pour!
Not even having to fulfill the duty of hunting.
'If this is the case, I can only hunt on days when good weapons are available, right?'
Then I'm a real S-class hunter too!
A dark line appeared at the corner of Suhyun's mouth.
It is a bonus that the reverberation comes out like crazy again and the association president and secretary grit their teeth.
* * *
"What time is it… … ."
As soon as he returned home, Soo-hyeon, who fell asleep as if fainting, woke up rubbing his eyes.
It was because he used too much mana because he had used the magic sword since the first day of his awakening.
"Huh… … . what time is it?"
There were so many things that happened during the day, so Suhyeon made a sound of pain.
When Suhyeon's blurred vision gradually recovered, the first thing he saw was a system message.
[Gram, the demon sword of anger, has been reverse summoned.]
'Has it already happened?'
Well, after signing a contract with the association and dealing with various complicated things, it was past 2pm when I returned home.
After that, I just threw off my clothes and collapsed on the bed, so the date was enough to change.
On the first day of awakening, it happened because I spent all night working part-time at a convenience store and even using magic power at the association.
Even so, Suhyeon's weak body couldn't hold out any longer.
'I'll have to conserve my mana from now on.'
Fortunately, thanks to enough sleep, Soo-hyeon's physical strength was restored to the utmost.
When Soo-hyeon came to his senses and closed the system message, another system message appeared.
[Demonic Sword Gram's understanding has exceeded 15%.]
[Skill – Obtain the Sword of Rage.]
"… … uh?"
Sword of Wrath?
Familiar words floated in Suhyeon's field of vision.
how can i forget
That he was the number one contributor that changed his life.
Suhyeon got up from bed and grabbed the cutter knife from the desk.
And I immediately remembered what had happened in the past.
Shall we lightly assume that the manager of the convenience store misunderstood the pay date by two days?
[The sword of rage reacts to the user's anger.]
[Current stored rage – 1%]
"Ohhh!"
Of course, it was far less than the anger contained in the holy relic, but even so, the overpowering power of the dark red aura was clearly felt.
"where… … ."
As an experiment, Suhyeon lightly cut the corner of a desk that could have been 5 cm thick.
Awesome!
Then, as if cutting tofu, he lightly cut through the wooden desk.
With just one thin cutter knife.
"Then maybe… … ?"
Suhyeon went to the kitchen and took out a spoon.
And again, I tried to infuse my anger.
Then, a dark red aura began to sway over the spoon.
"It doesn't necessarily apply only to swords!"
Just in case, I also tried other instruments.
As a result, everyone was able to contain their anger without any problems.
[The level of understanding of the Sword of Rage has increased. It can store up to 15 percent of force.]
"Oh my… … ."
In this way, even if a weapon of a slightly disappointing level comes out, it can be sufficiently covered.
In addition, there will be no hunting obligations, and there will be no need to uncover the source of power.
'Suddenly things work out so easily?'
Is life finally on the road to success?
Thinking like that made my complicated mind more stable.
I felt like I had something strong in my life that I hadn't had in a while.
It feels like I got on a high-speed high-pass train in an instant when it was difficult to take care of my life.
That's also for the vertical rice cake box train.
"Kuhh… … ."
A bloody laugh came out.
Oh, life tastes good.
Even though he was immersed in the afterglow, Suhyeon, who came to his senses, looked around.
My parents are already at work in the morning.
Come to think of it, I couldn't even tell my parents.
If you go, tell me what.
What would you say if you suddenly woke up as an S-class hunter?
A surprised expression was already in his eyes.
It's a while to pass the time blankly, imagining this and that.
'I must have gained strength, there must have been artifacts, should I get out of the gate too?'
The power of the sword of rage yesterday was phenomenal.
Wouldn't this be enough to wipe out the monsters with only 2-3% of power?
Thinking so, Suhyeon immediately stood up and said.
"Interstellar roulette!"
[The interstellar roulette returns.]
