Its the weekend and as usual, Min-seo has co up to Seoul. Hyun-seok, in a good mood and wanting to show off his brand-new rcedes E-Class Cabriolet, drove towards the terminal. Its a car he had bought with the intention of lifting his spirits after receiving criticism from Jong-won about his previous vehicle, despite it being a little small. Nonetheless, it was sufficient and more than enough to attract attention.
Min-seo.
Oppa!
Min-seo ran over with a big smile, practically bouncing with excitent, and grabbed Hyun-seoks hand, jumping up and down.
Oppa, oppa, oppa, you know what? I got third place in the whole school!
Hyun-seoks smile grew wider. It was great that Min-seo was doing well in school, but what made him even happier was how happy Min-seo was. He ruffled her hair a few tis and Min-seo responded by slightly shrugging her shoulders and grinning widely.
If sothing like that happens, you should have called . Why didnt you say anything?
I was going to tell you in person when we t today! Oppa, I did well, didnt I?
Yeah, you did great. My little sister is so smart and talented.
After scolding Min-seo harshly for bringing over the wrong Greenstone last ti, she had beco even more affectionate since that day. In reality, Jong-won had explained that Hyun-seok hadnt answered the phone so she only brought over three Greenstones without questioning it, so Min-seo was unjustly reprimanded. That day, Min-seo cried bitterly and Jong-won had to buy her beef to make up for it.
Hyun-seok spoke up, But Min-seo, its not just because youre doing well in school, its because seeing you happy makes happy. You know? Sotis its more about the effort than the result.
Min-seo, looking around cautiously, spoke in a soft voice.
To be honest, I was trying to sleep, but the mosquito monster kept bothering . So, I opened up the battlefield. But then, I found that I was studying really well. I could rember everything just by looking at it. So, I left the mosquito alone and studied, and I think I leveled up about 30 tis because of it.
Hyun-seok chuckled in disbelief. Normally, if you capture a monster, you cant open up a battlefield. But this was a different situation. And it wasnt just because of that.
Besides that I know how hard youre trying. You worked hard for the exam. Lets go eat sothing delicious.
Hyun-seok felt unexpectedly happy and jokingly said, Get in, miss, before driving smoothly down the road in his expensive-looking foreign car. It was so comfortable to drive, he could clearly see everything around him. Thats why people talked about foreign cars, he thought. It was actually pleasant to drive.
However, Hyun-seok almost had an accident while driving because Min-seo suddenly shouted.
Whats wrong with you, oppa? Why didnt you tell ? I hate you, oppa!
Ugh, I forgot. My ears are falling off.
Hyun-seok explained what had happened during that ti.
He had started raising his bonus stats one by one. He had to focus on raising one stat because he didnt know how much he needed to raise to forcefully enter Normal Mode. So, he chose strength. When you enter normal mode, H/P and m/p are shown as specific numbers. In other words, if you know H/P clearly, you can tell how dangerous it is when you are hit, and you can know exactly when it becos dangerous.
According to Jong-won, there is no pain from damage in normal mode. There is no external force acting on you. Its like being in a battlefield. If there are monsters within the battlefield, a shield-like transparent barrier appears, which -invisible to others- only reduces H/P from attacks.
In other words, at least in the battlefield, the impact only reduces H/P. Of course, they havent tried to experint with H/P reaching zero yet. It could be fatal if you keep fighting without feeling any pain and H/P reaches zero. Even though he is a curious young man, he doesnt seem willing to risk his life.
Anyway, the concrete H/P that has been solidified has beco a double-edged sword that can provide so safety as ntioned earlier, if you dont manage H/P properly, you may unknowingly die. Therefore, he thought that increasing strength stats to increase H/P would be the most efficient way.
So you were forced to switch to normal mode when your strength stat beca 200?
Yeah.
And you were in danger of losing your leftover stats because it was too big for normal mode?
Yeah.
But luckily, it was evenly distributed without disappearing?
Thats right.
Min-seo breathed a sigh of relief as she listened to Hyun-seoks words. He had been forcibly entered into Normal Mode and had received several penalties. It was the sa penalty as when he was forced to switch to easy mode, but one more thing was added: invalidation of remaining stats. To be more precise, if he didnt distribute his stats within 30 seconds, they would all disappear. Hyun-seok, who always emphasized balance, evenly distributed the remaining stats.
Out of 790 points, he used 100 points for his strength stat, and thanks to that, his strength increased to 201. He also heard an alert tone.
You have obtained 200 points in strength for the first ti. Your rchant title will be upgraded to rchant 1. You will receive a bonus stat of 6.
Before his remaining stats were nullified, he distributed 680 points evenly among all stats. When he thought of the thod, an alert tone asked if he really wanted to do that, and in his haste, Hyun-seok just chose Y. Luckily, it turned out to be a fortunate event.
Thanks to that, he was able to record an enormous number in his five stats: Strength 337, Agility 237, Intelligence 236, Stamina 237, and Energy 186, each with 136 points distributed evenly. He exceeded his initial expectations and raised his strength stat to over 300, resulting in an imnsely high stat value. But it didnt end there.
You have obtained 300 points in strength for the first ti. Your rchant title will be upgraded to rchant 2. You will receive a bonus stat of 24.
You have obtained 200 points in agility for the first ti. Your Speedy title will be upgraded to Speedy 1. You will receive a bonus stat of 6.
You have obtained 200 points in intelligence for the first ti. Your Sage title will be upgraded to Sage 1. You will receive a bonus stat of 6.
You have obtained 200 points in stamina for the first ti. Your Iron Man title will be upgraded to Iron Man 1. You will receive a bonus stat of 6.
As all of his titles, aside from Monster Slayer, were upgraded one by one, Hyun-seok gained a total of 42 remaining stat points. He decided not to raise his stats this ti as there were penalties even in normal mode, and he couldnt waste the remaining stat points recklessly. He had a feeling that anything could happen if his title The Pioneer of the Impossible gained 1 or 2 like the others. Keeping the remaining stat points seed like the wise choice in many ways.
He knew that his titles were being upgraded.
If that was the case, then The Pioneer of the Impossible would also be upgraded. He didnt know if it followed the sa rules as the other titles, but it gave a bonus of 3 stat points in the beginning and 1 gave 6 bonus stat points. However, when it beca 2, it gave a whopping 24 bonus stat points.
Twice of 3 and four tis of 6 if it follows this pattern, it will increase geotrically.
He couldnt be sure that this rule was exact, but he felt that the effect would be trendous as his titles were upgraded.
The direction was clear, as Hyun-seok spoke up.
Im certain about the direction. I cant beco stronger through the normal leveling or experience system. I need to accumulate a lot of achievents.
Min-seo looked at her older brother with a broad smile. She blinked her large eyes and thought to herself.
Brother has changed?
Then she asked a barrage of questions.
Brother, whats your H/P? And whats your level for opening the battlefield? Did the M/P consumption appear in the blank space as we expected? Did you learn any new skills? And if your attack power and defense power are also increased, what will they be? Co on, tell quickly. Im dying to know.
