Episode 2 Luck is also created (5)

“Is this the power of awakening? It changes day by day.”

In the studio apartment that I arrived at dawn, I muttered while drinking beer from the convenience store. And I reviewed my achievements during that time.

Reached level 25, acquired the swordsmanship of the Imperial Knights, and made a profit of 65 million won by selling items.

Lastly,

Obtained a new hunter license.

I put down the beer I was drinking and took out a card from my wallet.

Although it is temporary, it is a special hunter license that allows you to freely enter any dungeon.

As I looked at this, I recalled the conversation I had with Shin Dae-hoon at the cafe in the Seoul Station hunting ground a while ago.

“Then how about this? Even if you’re not officially affiliated, if you need support, let me know, and I’ll offer it to my friend.”

“Support? Do you mean as mercenary?”

“Yes. Ultimately, isn’t it because there’s a shortage of personnel? It may be difficult to be affiliated, but if there’s an appropriate fee, hiring mercenaries should be possible.”

“…I understand. What do you want?”

“If you issue me a special hunter license, I’ll go support wherever you request once every two weeks.”

Special hunter license.

There’s a lot I learned from standing guard at dungeons.

Because you need to be familiar with the official documents and regulations sent by the Hunter Bureau regarding dungeon entry.
As far as I know, if you have a special hunter license, you have priority in all bids and can enter the first crack that appears without permission.

Although it is not issued frequently, it is known that special hunter licenses have been issued to some S-class or SS-class hunters associated with the government.
Of course, Shin Dae-hoon expressed some reservations.

“Without identity verification when issuing a special hunter license…?”

“Then let’s stop there. I didn’t intend to cling on, I just wanted to mediate. Since it seems like there’s nothing more to discuss, I’ll leave now.”

“Wait a minute! Alright, I understand. However, it’ll be difficult to issue a permanent one, but it seems possible only to renew the period. If that’s okay, then I’ll try to…”

“Well… okay. Let’s say that. And one more thing. Since my friend wants to hide his identity, please issue the hunter license secretly in my name. It will appear as if I’m entering alone.”

“Uh… that shouldn’t be a problem, but is there a reason why you want to go together…?”

“I also need to take care of some personal matters between us.”

In the end, Shin Dae-hoon accepted my proposal.

What can I do? A thirsty person has to dig a well.

After parting ways, Shin Dae-hoon contacted me the next day, and shortly thereafter, the special hunter license was delivered to my house. It can’t even be picked up in person for confidentiality.

Although the situation of negotiating with the head of the Hunter Bureau’s personnel department was tense, thanks to the effect of my characteristic ‘calmness,’ I was able to gain enough benefit.

“Thanks to that, I can achieve my accomplishments.”

When the third achievement was opened, I was at a loss for what to do, but the problem was resolved.

[With successful completion of the second achievement, the third achievement is unlocked.]
[The third achievement is unlocked.]
[Third Achievement – Clear a D-class dungeon (0/1)]
[Hidden Quest: Lord’s Achievement (2/10)]
[You can receive hidden rewards upon completing all achievements.]

The third achievement was to clear a D-class dungeon.

Clearing itself wouldn’t be difficult, but that wasn’t the problem.

According to common sense, if it’s an E-class dungeon, even an F-class hunter could clear it depending on the dungeon, but from D-class onwards, it’s considered impossible.

If an F-class hunter says they will clear a D-class dungeon alone?

There would be no dungeon guard to send.

If you say you’ll clear it, it could become troublesome in its own way.

Of course, there is not no way. You just have to find a dungeon in the remote area where there are no guards.

However, that too is only temporary, and considering the increasing difficulty of the achievements, I needed to find a more long-term solution.

So I proposed to Shin Dae-hoon.

Utilizing the skills exposed in ‘Taeseng GilgeoI,’ I managed to obtain a hunter license that allows entry into any dungeon.
Turning crisis into opportunity.

“Then, I should turn the rare opportunity into results.”

Ding-!

While I was organizing my thoughts drinking beer, I received a message from Shin Dae-hoon.

Whether it’s because there’s a shortage of manpower or because he wanted to test my skills, the mission is just a few hours away from starting

It is a good thing for me.

Originally, I was planning to enter the D-class dungeon alone, but since I could also solve the mission of the Hunter Bureau while clearing hidden achievements, it was advantageous for me.

I had to wake up early for dungeon entry, but there was something I had to do before going to bed.

Because I had been focusing on my current life after awakening, I hadn’t been able to perform the daily quest of ‘Higher’ that I had to do every day.

With so many characters, it would take over four hours if I were to do it now.

I wouldn’t be able to sleep until I entered the dungeon, but I wasn’t worried.

“I might as well spend some money.”

The paid enhancement potions that I used to minimize efficiency.

Using the potions I usually saved for PVP or raids for the daily quest significantly shortened the homework time.

“Hmm, it’s finished faster than usual, should I do more?”

Of course, the shortened time was used for other farming.

“How much more do we have to walk to get out?”

“Seriously, it’s so dirty here. Why on earth did a dungeon appear in a place like this?”

“That’s what I’m saying. Preventing dungeon breaks in unpopular areas is our job, but it’s really annoying.”

As the three civil servant hunters of the Hunter Bureau, Seo Chun-bok, Park Nam-il, and Ahn Jin-su, climbed the mountain, they grumbled.

Seo Chun-bok, Park Nam-il, and Ahn Jin-su, the 14th dungeon team of the Gyeonggi Branch of the Hunter Bureau, were all D-class hunters in their 40s, here to prevent dungeon breaks in the mountains of Yangpyeong.

Today is the day to clear the D-class dungeon in the mountains of Yangpyeong.
It’s deep in the mountains and doesn’t produce good items, so it hadn’t received any bids for over 20 days.

While climbing the mountain path to find the portal, the youngest team member, Ahn Jin-su, spoke to Seo Chun-bok and Park Nam-il, who were trailing behind.

“But isn’t it a bit easier today? I heard that two mercenaries were sent from the headquarters.”

“Mercenaries? Ugh, that’s annoying. What mercenaries for just clearing D-class dungeons? What’s their grade?”

“They said the details are confidential. It seems like the headquarters sent them to help because the public servant hunters have been suffering a lot lately.”

In response to team leader Seo Chun-bok’s question, Park Nam-il answered, wiping sweat.

Then wrinkles formed on Seo Chun-bok’s forehead.

“Don’t know their rank? That’s as good as a confirmation. I’ve never seen a guy who doesn’t open his rank properly.”

“Well, I think so too… But… since the personnel department at headquarters recommended them, wouldn’t they at least do their part?”

“Want to bet? I’ll bet a mana potion on the fact that he’s a useless parachute jumper.”

Although the person in question hadn’t shown up yet, Seo Chun-bok shouted confidently.

But it wasn’t a concern for the other two.

“Even if it’s just D-class, what could go wrong? Let’s finish quickly and have some pork belly.”

“Yes, if we finish, the team leader will treat us.”

The three civil servant hunters each took out their weapons and entered the D-class No. 135 dungeon.

However, they didn’t know.
Right after entering the dungeon, the color of the rift changed from black to red.
