« I'm sorry. There's no way I'm ... in the wrong room, is there? What is it, dear?

The third place opened directly with the key and came in. I couldn't have picked the wrong room.

« Thief »?

Jeong-Do examined the trespasser again.

» »I'm not a thief. »

No matter how strict society is, the world is not so tasteless that a woman with such a transcendent appearance has to eat by stealing. Besides, more than anything.

« 'What kind of crazy person would wear a maid's uniform and steal?'

Jeong-Do was confused when the woman opened her mouth.

« 'I'm sorry to disturb you, but please calm down. »

« 'You're from the Association, aren't you? Did you have a wrong awakening today or something? »

It was the most plausible reasoning to think « Jeong-Do. »

« I am here for the awakening, but I am not from the Association. »

« Then where did you come from? »

The woman in the maid's uniform steamed for a moment, then spoke.

« I'm from… 'the real universe'. »

The woman's answer only served to add to Jeong-Do's confusion.

« So… you're the one who came from the 'real universe' to help me awaken? »

It was accurate. After all, you have the insight of a holder. »

No, no insight, I'm just putting words together…

Jeong-Do was convinced. That this woman was quite strange, unlike her appearance. Of course, she was strange in the opposite way.

« So what does this 'real universe' do? Is it some kind of secret government organization? »

It was the first time I'd heard that name in my life, although I'd made quite a lot of money in the industry to a degree.

« It's a long explanation. Have you heard of the holographic universe theory? »

« No, I've never heard of it. »

« To explain it simply, this universe that Jeong-Dong-Nim currently lives in is one of countless copy versions of the real universe. It's like a hologram that projects and shows the original. »

Quirky, I was impressed enough.

Of course, he didn't marvel at the woman's words, but at her appearance.

« 'If my filthy uncle had spoken such ravings in earnest, I would have declared him without bothering…'

The ravings of a woman who didn't even deserve the term « beautiful » still made me want to listen a little more. It was a male who had no choice but to do the right thing.

« The time it takes for a copy universe to be projected from the real one is about one hundred million years. It means that not only all the past that was here and now, but also the future, 100 million years from now, is recorded in the real universe. »

OK, this is it. Let's deliver. I was in no condition to minister to such an outrageous prank.

That's what Jeong-Do had in mind the moment he was about to take out his phone.

« Eighth grader. »

« Yeah? »

I've done 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats, and shaved my head after a 10km race.

Poof.

Then he missed his cell phone and opened his mouth wide.

« 'Third year of middle school. I once said seriously to a girl I happened to pass, just because her hands were cold, « Are you a vampire by any chance? » I said once. Ummm…this is a quick wake up call, no matter how much it's me. »

« Wait…wait a minute! »

« 'Third year junior high school student, after all. I once wore an eye patch over one eye and covered my hand with a bandage… »

« Stop! I believe you, so stop! »

When the black history that I had never told anyone was relayed to me, I couldn't hold on that long and shouted.

« …So what does it really mean in space? »

* * * * * « We gave you a gift in honor of the person who embodied the first miracle in Tai. »

* * * « I don't remember embodying anything like that. I think you must have misunderstood something. »

Although today I am embodying the greatest setback of my life.

« No. »

But the woman adamantly denied it. Then she greeted him in the right way, politely and gracefully.

« 'Greetings, sir. I am Winry Makina, agent of the real universe. »

The woman who introduced herself as Winry looked at Jeong-Do with a respectful gaze.

« The second person to awaken since the birth of the universe, the real universe will give you a gift with infinite respect, please accept it. »

Jeong-Do didn't notice.

« What? Is there a reason why communication is held in such high esteem? »

Make sure you reading at koreanmtl. online

Isn't it at best a supplementary function that allows us to carry on a conversation more smoothly?

Winry frowned at Jeong-Do's words, but quickly put on an expression and said.

« '…When life was first created in the beginning, life forms were simple. They reacted to stimuli, and slightly more advanced creatures moved on instinct. They just thought and moved on their own. »

« We communicate our intentions to others. And have them communicate. Act together. »

Winry spoke to Jeong-Do with an upturned face.

. « The first communication that the first lifeforms had. It gave birth to the concept of crowds. It's a miracle enough, I suppose. »

Frankly, Jeong-Do was hard to realize. In the first place, I don't even understand what the real universe is, and I'm confused when I'm confronted with stories on a scale such as the origin of life and the origin of communication.

Still, one thing is clear.

« It's not for my loss.

You're giving me a free gift. Then I have to take it unconditionally.

« Hmm, yes. I see what you mean. So what kind of gift will you give me? »

« I'll give you a skill. »

« What?

I was really surprised this time.

skill(skill)

Skills are really hard to acquire. There are only two definite conditions for acquiring skills that have been revealed so far.

One is when you first level up.

The other is a « skillstone » that can be found in dungeons with a very rare chance.

The other ways to acquire them were still being researched by the World Association.

The value of skillstone was tremendous. Some skills that are rare cannot be bought even with money.

It was no wonder Jeong-Do was surprised that they were willing to give such a thing away for free.

« You're giving me a skill stone? »

« No, I'll inject the skill directly into you. I'll give you three, depending on the number of talents. I'll also give you a combined skill that combines all the traits of all the talents into one. You will receive four skills in total. »

« Direct infusion, what a strange thing that is again… »

Winry said, reaching out a hand to Jeong-Do's forehead.

« …Talent , , Confirmed, determining appropriate skills for Talent… »

« 'Hold on a second. What is the talent's level? »

Unperturbed by the « Jeong-Do » confusion, Mr. Winli continued his work.

« Skill , , and have been granted. Integrated Skill granting completed. »

With those last words, Winry sighed tiredly.

« 'Fuu… the entire process has been completed. If you manifest the skill , you will guess most of the information. Now, I will leave my seat. It has been an honor to witness the miracle of Taihatsu. »

« 'Wait a minute! I'm still going to ask. It's like a mountain. »

Jeong-Do Winry turned to Jeong-Do at his impatient words, but .

« . thank you for your help. »

With those last words, Winry was gone in a flash.

What a ridiculous thing this was.

There was silence in the room. I wonder if this is how I would feel if I were confused by a ghost.

Jeong-Do shook his head and went to check.

« …state window. »

Ttiring!

With a sound effect, a holographic window appeared in front of 'Jeong-Do's' eyes.

Name : Authenticity

Level : 1

Possession mana: 7

Strength: 15 Physical Strength: 17 Reflexes: 27mana Sensitivity: 15

Talent:Communication-lv.3, Game-lv.2, <Patience-lv.1

Skills: "Information Guzzler", "Observation", "Status Window", "Resistance".

"That's really nice."

Surprisingly, all of that ridiculousness was true, for the mana watch had been set up in the first place.

The status window displayed personal information that could be viewed by the mana watch. It was essentially the same as the mana watch, with the minor difference that the talent level was displayed.

But Jeong-Do was not disappointing. Because I knew that there was a very big difference.

"'This… is reflected in real time!

The obvious proof is that the mana sensitivity has increased by 2 over the value measured by the away car.

The user information displayed in the mana watch has to be periodically updated in the away car each time you go around the dungeon. Before the update, I had no way of knowing how much I had grown.

This means that you can check your growth and plan new strategies while attacking dungeons.

It must have been a tremendous advantage.

Make sure you reading at koreanmtl. online

Jeong-Do confirmed the other skills again.

"Observation and tolerance…" It's obvious.

I rarely do this these days, but I used to love comics and novels when I was in school. You don't need to watch videos about observation and tolerance. What's more important now is.

"Information gumbo…"

Jeong-Do of integration skill.which had all three talent traits, was immediately used skill.

Ttiring!

A holographic window appeared and

« …No way. »

I've often seen that phrase somewhere. I've seen a lot of similar phrases, to be exact.

« A messing game? »

The talent must have influenced him.

« A golden round capsule appeared in front of Jeong-Do, and with the effect of the capsule breaking, a holographic window appeared.

<Rare information acquired! <Rare information acquired!

« ... huh? »

I hurriedly checked the date on my phone.

April 13, 2030.

« That's ridiculous… »

Oh no. That was the only way I could describe it.

You can get information about the future!

Winry said, the information recorded in the « real universe ». The skill to provide such information to the right path was born.

Jeong-Do calmed his trembling heart and thought.

« 'But what does this have to do with ?

I know that it has something to do with and . By the way, what about ?

' « Well, let's try messing it up more, just to see. »

Instead of such trivial matters, the lottery in front of me was more urgent. Soon after, I turned in MANA.

After a total of six draws like that.

As for the second place, I clearly felt why « patience » was included in it.

« Hamangem level. »

The result of the gacha for number 6 was fantastic.

My neighbor's cat got pregnant. >

« 'In 102 years, 30 days, 22 hours and 17 seconds, the heaviest rainfall in the history of the Korean peninsula will begin.' >

.

17 days later, 100 won falls in the noodle corner of the convenience store in front of my house. >

>.

I was flooded with useless information.

« Huh…

« I should have expected that during the UFO catcher game.'

Was that why he needed 'patience'?

I chose Jeong-Do's information, and what I found out was two things.

That one gacha consumes one mana.

The shape of the capsule depended on the information level. After the golden capsule, the next six gachas were all mediocre capsules.

The amount of mana recovered is exactly the amount of total mana you have over 24 hours.

A person with a total mana of 10 would recover 10 kg in 24 hours. A person with 100 will recover 100 in 24 hours.

This is why the total amount of user mana is so important.

« I see. Eat all my mana. »

Jeong-Do already had exactly 1 mana left.

Jeong-Do threw in the mana with a trembling heart.

Ttiring!

Reigning capsule made of diamonds

« Jeong-Do's heart started beating like crazy again.
