Perhaps because I stayed in my dream longer than in reality recently, my room felt a little strange.
Now I’m more familiar with the ceiling of the inn with its wood and yellow soil.
As I got out of the bed scratching my head, I stretched out loudly.
“I’m refreshed, too.”
It is unpleasant to carry out a forced quest in a dream because it feels like being played by someone’s trick, but when I felt fresh and see the reward card when I wake up, my dissatisfaction has subsided.
I picked up the four Lower reward cards that had been placed at the bedside and looked pleased.
“It may not be a reality, but it’s a dream that pays off as much as it does here.”
If there is nothing wrong with being killed in a dream, I would feel better, but I don’t dare to test it.
[Lower Rewards]
[Do you want to use a card?]
Shaking off unnecessary thoughts, I happily used the reward card.
I hope something like the winning numbers of lotto appears this time.
My expectations were high because it was the first time that four rewards were opened at a time.
Paw!
White light popped one after another.
[You earned 200,000 won]
[Mana and Luck Increased by 2.]
At first, I thought it was good to be able to hold cash just by dreaming, but after getting a huge reward last time, I felt like this was a bummer.
To be honest, this is not a bad thing, but I think human greed is inevitable.
At the moment I felt so sorry.
As if it was too early to be disappointed, a special reinforced effect occurred.
“Wow!”
I clenched my fists and cheered.
But the effect didn’t end once, but it happened one after another.
[Acquired Active Skill Leap]
[Acquired passive skill intuition]
This time it wasn’t a material reward like last time.
Although I was steaming for worldly compensation, I nodded, thinking that this was not bad either.
The more skills I have, the better for my safety.
“I think this is better in the long run than in an immediate interest.”
I put four 50,000 won bills into my wallet, the only material reward, and checked my current status.
Strength: 7 ->8
Stamina: 4 ->5
Agility: 4 ->7
Intelligence: 25 ->26
Mana: 4 (Note I don’t know why this isn’t increased)
Luck: 2
This is the rate of increase in capability.
In reality, the ID could not be activated, but I remember this much even if I don’t have to look at it.
With the completion of the quest, four skills were obtained and six abilities increased by acquiring two more agility with a reward card.
Considering that at first strength was five, agility and stamina were three, I think I will become Superman at this rate.
Moreover, Mana and Luck have increased by 2 compared to the first 3, so I don’t know how they function, but I think I am comparable to an athlete.
I’ll go around the park a little later.
Skills:
Slaughter (Active / LV-)
Mana Emission(Active / LV1)
Leap (Active / LV Not Verified)
Intuition (Passive / LV Not Verified)
I just learned from the Mana Emission that the skill is leveled according to their type.
Slaughter is a level-free skill, and Mana Emission is 1 and the other 2 can be identified only by opening the ID.
Skill levels may get higher with use, or they have a set grade from the beginning. I will find out naturally over time.
And first of all, there’s something I need to check.
It was the availability of skills in real life.
I forgot to experiment with slaughter yesterday, but I’ll have to check it out today.
If I can use these skills in real life, I feel like a psychic.
“Well, when I think about what’s going on, I’m half as powerful as I used to be?”
I washed my face lightly and wore a hat and a mask, I left home in a training suit.
It’s 8:30 right now.
Moreover, since I live in Sadang-dong, I could see many office workers on the street.
It’s not bad to walk alone in the opposite direction amid a busy crowd on their way to work.
Should I say that I feel like I’m a pioneer away from the common rules?
I was having a very peaceful day now, although some of the eyes that glanced towards me were unpleasant. It was by others that I got to get out of that group.
I walked for about 20 minutes and arrived at Kkachisan Park near Namseong Station.
For a park in the middle of the city, it was a very large and woody mountain, so it is perfect for hiding and doing something.
Moreover, I felt like I rented the whole mountain because there were fewer people as it was rush hour on weekdays.
Finding a fairly cozy vacant lot hidden by the bushes, I inhaled the grassy air.
Thanks to my increased ability, I didn’t feel that it was hard to climb the mountain path.
I lightly loosened my hands and feet, I twisted my body and muttered, looking up at the clear sky.
“Leap.”
I feel like I’ve become lighter.
When I jumped as hard as I could, the scenery around me quickly changed.
The images of trees passed by quickly.
Beyond the height of the trees, I could see the view of Sadang-dong, which is located under the Kkachisan mountain.
“Huh!”
The height at which my screams are about to leak.
However, I kept my mouth shut as I may not see where I land.
The height of the jump, ignoring gravity, is about 10 to 15 meters.
I’m not surprised that the skills were available in real life, but I’m freaked out at the fact that I was slowly free falling.
My body gradually accelerated toward the ground, and as I approached the ground, I closed my eyes regardless of my own will.
Boom!
“Huh?”
There was a heavy sound of shock, but there was no pain as I expected, so I opened my eyes, and my feet were now casually standing on the ground.
“Ha, ha, ha.”
Leap skills do not only come with jumping but also for landing.
That’s a relief.
Well, it would be a useless skill if I can’t control myself after jumping.
“That’s nice.”
I’m also glad that I can use my skills in real life, but if I use it right now, my survival rate in my dreams will be even higher.
And leap was not only used as a jump but also as a charge if run forward, which was very applicable.
If I take a leap forward with a spear in my hand, I will have considerable attack power even if I don’t use my skills separately because it adds weight and speed.
The next thing I’m going to try is the attack skill, mana emission, I got after completing the quest.
“Let’s try Mana Emission.”
Using skills I thought about which part of the body should I use the skill.
I chose my right hand, and immediately the blue energy wrapped around my fist.
“Is this mana?”
It felt completely different from Gordon’s magic.
I wonder how powerful I am.
In order to experiment, I let it out on the tree in front of me.
Bam!
Fist marks were deeply engraved on the tree with a loud crash sound.
Well, there was no dramatic effect, such as breaking a tree at once or piercing a hole, but it was a power very unlikely to appear in a human.
“The lasting effect is about 10 seconds.”
In addition, Mana Emission was not a one-off skill, but a persistence skill, which was expected to be of great help in combat.
However, there was a disadvantage in many advantages.
The consumption of Mana was too big.
With my current Mana, I can use slaughter skills up to 16 times.
In the case of leaping, slaughter and mana consumption were the same, and Mana emissions were about three times higher.
“I need to increase my mana.”
My current mana stat is 4.
It needed to be raised further for an easy battle.
Usually, completing a quest will give me bonus capabilities according to the way I proceed.
I think that if I use combat skills properly, my Mana will increase.
“I feel like I’ve become a superman.”
With the addition of skills, I had become completely out of the ordinary.
Now I feel like a superhero in a Hollywood movie.
Of course, I was a character far from the character that would always spit out the word justice in movies or comics.
“I don’t know what intuition is. Passive is not for practice, right?”
Even if I intentionally tried to feel something, there was nothing unusual.
From the name alone, I think it will be useful in a crisis, but I don’t know how it applies, so I don’t know if it’s functioning properly.
“Time will take care of this, too.”
I practiced the distance control of leap skill and the link between Mana Emission.
I ran to a nearby basketball court to check my physical abilities.
“I’m fast, but not as fast as I thought.”
Just because my abilities are doubled from the beginning, it didn’t mean I could suddenly run 100 meters from 16 seconds to about 8 seconds.
Just as the punch machine score is not twice as high as the muscle mass.
But I wasn’t too disappointed.
Because I expected this to happen in the first place.
However, if my ability rises without limitation in the future, I don’t know what will happen again.

*Summary page is only available for login users. Non-users can view the chapters on the chapter list.*
Shouldn’t Mana be 6 and Luck 4 because on chapter 15 – investment-1. Mana was raised from 3 to 4 and Luck from 1 to 2. This chapter increased them both by 2.
The author has wrote it like that in the Raws and for the next one he never updated them.
Thanks
Good chapter
