Chapter 4

Chapter 4

1. Return (3)

A generic term for people with special abilities against monsters?

It’s definitely Hangul, but it’s like looking at an English-English dictionary. So, should I say that it is the feeling of explaining an unknown word with an unknown word?

“What is a monster in the first place? monster?”

“If you click and go to the monster document, it will be detailed, but if you keep going like that, there is no end.

Cha Eun-seol answered clearly.

“There are games my brother used to play. You can think of it as a kind of mob that appeared there. It has been appearing all over the planet since 13 years ago, that is, 2012.”

“… … Do you think such monsters roam around in real life?”

“Huh. To be precise, it’s just wandering around in the dungeon.”

“If you’re a hunter, are you a special ability to deal with monsters?”

“right. To be precise, he is an Archer-class sniper among Hunters.”

Cha Shin Hyeon touched her forehead as she looked at Cha Eun-seol, who spoke easily and easily, as if talking about some game character information.

It felt like a headache coming from a body that was always in its best condition.

As an ordinary university freshman, it is unrealistic enough that she became the first person in the world who left a huge mark on Moorim.

However, it was hard to accept the fact that a monster appeared on Earth and her sister became a sniper, even though it was equally unrealistic, like the saying that if I did it, it would be romance and if I did it, it would be an affair.

“that… … If you’re a sniper, do you have any shooting training or something?”

“Hunters are not born through training. It’s a bit vague to say that it’s congenital though. Can you give me the remote control for a moment?”

Cha Eun-seol, who received the road remote control from Cha Shin Hyeon, scrolled down.

She went to the ‘Hunter’s History’ section and played the video posted in her first paragraph.

“Listen once.”

There was a reason she told me to listen to the video rather than watch it.

The video played by Cha Eun-seol was a sound only video with only sound on the black screen.

[The nightmare that threatens the very existence of mankind is coming soon. In preparation for that time, mankind must evolve one step further. In order to face the nightmare, you must level up your powers. Don’t listen to my warnings in vain. Don’t let your blessings be in vain.]

The video ended there.

The ability to sound sacred and mysterious even though it is the voice that comes from the speaker is probably an ability. The benevolent woman’s voice was not loud, but it pierced my ears.

“Who is this woman?”

“There are speculations about this and that, but she is usually called a goddess.”

“goddess? A female god?”

“Huh. I can’t explain it other than saying it’s a divine being.”

Cha Eun-seol laughed.

“About ten days after her brother’s disappearance, on April 1, 2011, the video was broadcast on all stations around the world. Some people thought the date was an April Fool’s joke, and there were rumors that it was a massive hack, but neither was it. It sounds Korean to my ears, but it sounds different if you speak a different native language.”

“Hoo.”

Cha Shin Hyeon was modestly admiring.

Cha Eun-seol continued.“The existence of the Goddess didn’t just broadcast that video, it seemed like she actually applied some kind of pressure. After some time, under the leadership of the United States and China, laws related to Hunter were enacted in most countries around the world. Currently, in Korea, if you are over the age of 14, you must take the Hunter Aptitude Test. It’s like getting a resident registration card.”

“Should I take it too?”

“I will take the missing person report as soon as it is canceled. You’re not going to live as a ghost, are you?”

Cha Eun-seol smiled brightly.

“Anyway, if you take the test, you will have the ability to open the status window. Whether you receive a class or not, according to the goddess, you will be in a state of ‘evolving one step further’.”

“… … Status window?”

It’s a word you hear a lot.

“Because you’re my brother, I’ll show you something special. Status window, all public!”

The status window, which was originally only visible to her eyes, was changed to be reflected in other people’s eyes by her will. A mysterious character made of light embroidered the air.

[Cha Eunseol]

HP : 94%

MP: 65 / 65

Class: Archer / Sniper

Level: Archer 25 / Sniper 6

Stat List: Allocable Points 0

Strength 5 / Durability 9 / Agility 15 / Intuition 1 / Spirit 1

Skill List: (Close)

Archery / Strong Poetry / Wind Waves / Scattered Poetry / Kang Tan Poetry / Clairvoyance / Sniper / Sunbo / Line Poetry

It was a bit similar to Cha Shin Hyeon’s, but quite different status window.

The fact that HP, estimated by physical strength, is displayed as a percentage, and MP, estimated by strength, is displayed as a numerical value – of course, Cha Shin Hyeon’s aggression is infinite, so the numerical value is meaningless – but the fact that classes and stats exist There was a clear difference in point.

In short, if Cha Shin Hyeon’s status window was closer to ‘objectifying her own level’, Cha Eun-seol’s status window was similar to a ‘game’.

By modern standards, this would be more familiar.

“Status Window, Class and Level Revealed.”

As Cha Eun-seol speaks again, the number of texts drops sharply.

Class: Archer / Sniper

Level: Archer 25 / Sniper 6

“Usually, what I show others is about my class or level. That alone is enough to prove yourself.”

“Right. It’s amazing that something like this happens when you take an aptitude test. It seems more like a flower than a swordsman.”

“That’s why some people call this a goddess’ blessing or baptism. If you catch monsters while the status window is open, your level goes up, and if you increase your stats or learn skills, you will have power that far exceeds that of ordinary people.”

Cha Eun-seol’s eyes narrowed slightly.

“So why don’t you tell me now? How did my brother, who doesn’t know anything about the status window, easily subdue me, who has a combined level of 31?”

“I said I didn’t know about the circumstances of this world, but I didn’t say that I was an ordinary person. It’s different from yours, but I also have a status window.”

Cha Shin Hyeon replied calmly.

It would have been better for her to confide in her and end it neatly than to come up with a strange lie to convince her sister. After all, the Earth had become a fantasy enough as much as Moorim.

“uh? okay?”

“But I thought I was special because I was the only person there who knew the existence of the status window. Of course, I didn’t even think that it was the kind that I could show others.”

“How different?”

“Status window, public.”

The white statement is undeniable. Cha Shin Hyeon called up the status window.

[Cha Shin Hyeon]

Stamina: 100% (Half-lost movement is applied)

Spirit: Unlimited

Outer Work: Level 50 (Max) (Fable level)

Inner Strength: Level 50 (Max) (Fable level)

Summation: Level 100 (Max)

List of skills acquired: (Open)

“Look.”

“… … I can’t see it.”

Cha Eun-seol mumbled tremblingly.

“Well? can’t you see? Status window, all public!”

Cha Shin Hyeon spoke again and again.

I turned my gaze slightly.

Cha Eun-seol still shook her head.

“I guess mine is picky.”

Cha Shin Hyeon, who was embarrassed for nothing, coughed in vain.

Cha Eun-seol looked at him with a slightly suspicious look.

“Aren’t you lying?”

“It looks good in my eyes. There’s no reason to lie about this. In any case, it’s not right that I overpowered you, isn’t it?”

“It is not.”

Cha Eun-seol tilted his head as if suddenly remembered.

“Then what happens when you take the aptitude test? Are there two status windows?”

“You have to take it to know. If there is no luck, errors will occur.”

Even with that said, Cha Shin Hyeon didn’t really care.

In Moorim, he received help from the system, but in that case, it was only to figure out what his level was or to get some information about martial arts. There was no such thing as giving quests or giving skill points as conveniently as in the game system.

‘Oh, there was one big thing.’

language is recognized There was no need to grumble about learning a new language, thanks to automatic translation of both spoken and written texts.

Anyway, aside from that, it was Cha Shin Hyeon’s own work to understand, learn, and practice martial arts, raising the level of external and internal martial arts. It had nothing to do with the presence or absence of a status window.

He had mastered all the useful martial arts, and frankly, after level 80, when the level had not risen too high, to be honest, he hardly ever opened the status window. I only opened it occasionally when the level went up. There is no need for it now that it is fully leveled.

So, I didn’t even have to worry about what went wrong after receiving a blessing from the goddess.

There was no reason why the state of martial arts he had achieved would disappear. He just thinks that he should do it because the law says that he must not take the aptitude test.

“Anyway, it seems that all the urgent questions have been resolved.”

“okay?”

“14 years have passed, Earth and Monsters roamed around, and her sister became a Hunter. In summary, this is not it. It’s the details, you can figure it out step by step.”

“As I said before, just by looking at that document, you will be able to understand pretty much everything. Read it whenever you have time.”

“What are you going to save and read? You can read them all now.”

“Do what you feel comfortable with. Oh, then…”

Cha Eun-seol got up from her seat and went into the bedroom.

While Cha Shin Hyeon was scrolling around, Cha Eun-seol, dressed in simple clothes, passed the living room and headed for the front door.

“I’ll go to the mart for a moment.”

“now?”

I looked at the clock. It was just past 4 o’clock. It’s morning, not afternoon.

“The mart for hunters is 24 hours. There are so many busy people.”

“What are you going to buy?”

“Something your brother would wear.”

Cha Eun-seol said as she glanced at Cha Shin Hyeon’s old uniform.

“The old clothes are so scruffy that you won’t be able to wear them, and now the clothes are so extraordinary that they stand out. You should have a casual attire.”

“If I come to buy it, why are you…”

“Do you have any money?”

An innocent question pierced Cha Shin Hyeon’s chest.

“… … no.”

“Do you know where the supermarket is?”

“······no.”

“So that means I’m coming. I’ll just buy a decent one, but there’s no need for the two of us to go. I am reading the wiki.”

“Yeah, yes.”

Cha Eun-seol didn’t say anything particularly poisonous, he just said it as usual, but Cha Shin Hyeon’s heart ached when he heard it.

It was the sadness that came from his falling into a completely incompetent man.

He awkwardly sent off Cha Eun-seol and let out a bitter sigh.

‘How did this happen?’

In the face of the rapidly changing trend of modern society, even the best man in his former years was nothing more than a misfit.

Unfortunately, the first person I met was my sister, so it would have been twice as difficult if I had fallen in an unfamiliar place with no one I knew.

Cha Shin Hyeon, who was left alone, pondered the feeling of helplessness and made a firm decision.

‘I’ll read it until the sun rises.’

The first step in adaptation starts with the wiki.
