The Quest Rewards Are Real! Chapter 8- Investment (1)

* * *

Perhaps because it was real-world, it was nothing like a game where the hunted monsters disappeared and left a drop item.

Grrr!

Goblin’s desperate struggle to survive was greatly seen.

I twisted the spear in my hand and stabbed it deeper, and the one who was stabbed in the middle of the back was wriggling and struggling.

“I am now in a bad mood.”

No matter what monster it is, it is bound to be awkward.

Maybe it’s more uncomfortable because I am a human.

But there’s no way I am shocked by monster hunting and couldn’t do it anymore, it was because I was scared to back off.

Rather, I picked up a spear and stabbed Goblin again for confirmation.

“You’re dead.”

Someone may look at me and be cool, but this was a perfectly realistic judgment.

I don’t have to be careless and take risks just because a monster was caught.

[Cold Rusty Dagger.
Rating: General
Weight: 0.3 kg
Length: 21cm (14cm)]

“That’s a good size.”

The most valuable thing one can get from hunting Goblin is their weapon.

Sometimes there are Goblin carrying pockets of money taken from humans, but the only possession of Goblin I hunted was a rusty dagger.

Goblin’s flesh and bones are worthless and cannot be eaten.

Among the by-products, leather can be sold at a low price, but there was no one here knack for skinning, so I only took one dagger.

While a large number of similar sizes in the blacksmith’s shop cost five copper coins, it was so crude that I wondered if I could get something in exchange.

However, it was not a bad auxiliary weapon for me, who was well-dressed but poorly armed.

‘Let’s move before the smell of blood spreads.’

I quickly got out of the place after dismantling the traps I had set up.

[Quest completed successfully]

[You have acquired slaughter skill as a reward]

[Quest completed using wisdom]

[Intelligence increase by 1.]

[Quest completed using a nearby weapon]

[Strength increase by 1.]

[Perfect first performance without a scar]

[All capabilities are increased by 1.]

It seems to be the same as hunting that it becomes easier when experience builds up. This was difficult to begin with.

“Phew…”

As a result of targeting Goblin alone, I was able to hunt five Goblin within three hours.

Strength: 5 -> 7
Stamina: 3 -> 4
Agility: 3 -> 4
Intelligence: 23 -> 25
Mana: 3-> 4
Luck: 1-> 2

Perhaps because it was the first battle to fight with weapons, the increase in capability was more noticeable as the quest was completed.

Can I also feel the change in reality?

[This skill acquisition adds a list of skills to your ID]

The magic ID was used as a status window for the game, as well as skills can be identified through ID.

-Slaughter (Active / LV-)

Of course, the system is unfriendly, but…….

I grinned as I saw the real list without explanation.

‘Well, we’ll see what the effect and methods are by experimenting. There’s a Goblin body right in front of me.’

Stretching down Goblin’s body, I reached out with my palm spread out.

“Slaughter.”

As I uttered commands reminiscent of the skill being used, the Goblin’s body began to decompose with the feeling of something escaping from my body.

[Goblin Leather]
[Goblin bone]
[Goblin flesh]
[Goblin Teeth]

And less than a second later, the monster’s by-products dropped and piled up like garbage.

“It’s like a drop item.”

The pile of by-products flowing with blood is Goreic, but convenience seems to be getting closer to the game.

I quickly got out of my seat after packing up the leather which is the most valuable among the Goblin by-products.

If I wake up now, there would be a Goblin’s body next to me.

But after a long time of traveling, I didn’t wake up even though I was out of the woods.

Is there one more quest to complete?

“Oh, you’re back in one piece!”

As I approached the village, the guard at the watchtower recognized me and quickly opened the door.

I put mud all over my body to erase the smell, and I’m just grateful that I am recognized by him right away.

And then, as soon as I entered the village.

“Huh?”

Suddenly the world was colored with darkness.

7:45 AM

Despite spending more than a week in the dream, in reality only about seven hours have passed.

The time spent over there can be long or short, but when I wake up the time passes was still the same.

‘I’m sure completing the quest is the condition to wake up, but I don’t know why there’s so much time difference before waking up.’

On the first day, I woke up a few hours after I completed the quest in the forest, and on the second day, I completed two quests and woke up only after the conversation with the chief.

And today, I woke up in my dream after I completed the quest and arrived at the village for about an hour, but I couldn’t see anything in common, so I scrunch my forehead.

“I’ve only completed four quests, so I can’t figure everything out.”

The exact thing that I know, things like gods and aliens may have led me to this situation.

Just in case, they are still eating popcorn while looking at my situation thinking it was just a game.

-Tick!

But then.

The reward card that was placed at the bedside fell to the floor by itself.

“…….”

Thanks to that, I tried to divert my anger toward the card, but I coughed out for nothing.

“Hmm! I don’t want you to punish me for my profanity. He’s usually like this. And anyone would be upset if they were in this situation. I’m rather calm.”

I don’t know what I am talking about.

It’s pathetic to see myself making excuses for no reason.

I lifted myself up with a deep sigh, picking up a lower-level reward card that fell to the floor.

I’m in the best condition today.

After I completed the quest, I felt very refreshed as if I had slept in an oxygen room.

“I should start working out.”

The Goblin hunt was surprisingly tough.

However, more dangerous situations are likely to occur in the future.

Therefore, I need to secure any means to protect myself.

“I wonder if exercising in real life affects my ability in the dream.”

I don’t have a fixed schedule until tomorrow, so I’ll start right away today.

But before that.

The first thing to do is to check the reward.

Gold letters were engraved on the black card, and a message window appeared in front of me asking if I would use the reward card.
Paw!

As I nodded, a colorful white light covered the studio.

“Oh!”

But I felt that the effect is noisier than last time.

Why is that?

Since the reward is random, will there be any other prize?

[NewsPaper acquired for section A]

My anticipated expression was immediately shattered.

“Crazy!”

Frowning, I snatched the newspaper slowly falling out of the air and threw it on the floor.

“It’s making me look forward to it.”

But for a while.

Feeling something strange, I glanced down at the newspaper.

‘But it’s a hard-earned reward, wouldn’t it be different?’

It could be a false hope.

However, I picked up the newspaper, recalling the fact that it was not the lowest level, but the fact that it was particularly spectacular.

“Huh?”

And sure enough.

[Wednesday, 06/10/2020]

It’s a newspaper that’s far from ordinary.

It was future information containing an article about a month later.

-Gulp
Swallowing dry saliva, I quickly picked it up and unfolded it on my desk.

[A serial murder on K University campus]

[The police checked the CCTV, but the investigation was difficult because the video was not saved for an hour before and after the incident.]

In the newspaper, there’s an incident that would make the reader scared.

[We defeated Japan 3-0 in the warm-up match for the Olympic team]

Kubo was completely sealed off, and Lee Kang-in flew.

A sports article that makes the reader feel good.

[T Chemical, which was on the verge of being delisted, has seen its stock price soar due to the development of new semiconductor materials and the massive investment of S Electronics. It’s almost 10 times the growth compared to a month ago….]

It also included eye-opening content.

“It’s….”

The best reward that would not be insufficient is to be called a treasure.

It wouldn’t have been better if there had been a lottery number, but it was worth a million depending on how to use it.

Quest number four.

Fourth reward.

I think I am aleady past the stage of questioning whether this was real or fake.

All I have to do now is raise funds to invest money.
