Learn it anyway. Its better than not having a skill at all.
Then you really bought this for to learn?
Youll probably thank later.
Jung Sooah was lost in deep thought. This was a skillbook worth a couple thousand dollars. She was wrestling the idea of whether she should sell it or learn it.
Ill learn it.
So youve decided?
Yeah. Im sure there must be a reason why you want to learn itso Ill do it.
Well, the skill that I learned is a level 0 too.
Ohdidnt you say that you put it up on the market?
It didnt sell.
Then your physical ability must because of that skill..
I got more upgrades than that
So you can get even more powerful?
I nodded my head and she began digging into the backpack for the skillbook. She brought out a thin paperback looking book and stared at with a frown after looking at the weird words.
What the heckwhat language is this?
I dont know either. It was the first ti I ever saw anything like it when I saw it in mine. But when I just read it, it popped into my head. Even though I didnt know the aning still.
HmI see. Are all skillbooks like this?
Nope. From what I hear, all the other skillbooks are written so people can understand it. But if you keep reading it, youll learn it. Ohwait.
I rembered one thing. But she was in the zone and didnt hear . I didnt want to break her concentration. If I broke it, the skillbook might end up disappearing before she could fully gain the skill.
Flash!
A burst of light exploded out of the book.
A mont later. I saw Jung Sooahs head collapsed into the empty ran bowl. She must have fainted just like I had done. I passed out for about 10 daysthe sa would probably be true for her.
This annoying girl
It would have been fine if it was just one daybut if she ended up missing for 10 days, her family would probably file for missing persons. The problem was, I didnt know where this girl lived. I tried to look through her phone, but there was a passcode on it. Arg.
All I could do was wait for a call to co through.
I cleaned off the remnant ran soup off her face and placed her on the bed. Since she would be out for so long, I couldnt let her lay on the ground. I dont know if it was because she was so muscular, but she was pretty heavy for a girl.
I cleaned up a bit and went on the internet. I wanted to see what happened with the irregular event from yesterday. But there was nothing out of the norm. There wasnt even one line of news referring to an irregular.
Then that ans it only happened at the Baekoonsa dungeon?
I guess its not impossible. Because irregulars had appeared once in a blue moon before that incident. That one incident was the only ti irregulars had popped up all over the country. It seems the Baekoonsa irregular was an isolated one this ti.
But I still had so questions.
Why did the irregular appear at the sa ti the level 0 skillbook did. If these two events happened independent of eachother, I would have crossed it off as nothing out of the ordinary. But for them to happen at the sa tiit couldnt be chance.
Hmm
Click. Click.
I clicked the mouse while thinking.
Level 0 skillbook. Irregular.
What was the aning of these two?
I went into the hunter market. I went to check if there was anyone trying to sell a level 0 skillbook.
No one.
From my experience, it would seem that the drop probability of a level 0 skillbook were high. I an, I had hunted just twice and both tis I got a level 0 skillbook. Even if I had ridiculously good luck, there should have been at least 1 level 0 skillbook up on the market.
Or maybe level 0 skillbooks drop only for ?
Nah. Its probably all in my head.
***
There were no calls for her over the next 10 days. I guess she was just as much of a loner as I was.
Water!
Sooah drank a crapload of water as soon as she woke up. When she finished off an entire 2 liter bottle of water, she stared at dumbly and said.
Hungry.
Jesus.
She finally seed to get it together after eating a piece of bread and two rans. Then she said to .
Ha? Did I eat too much?
Yes. You even ate my share.
Im sorry. Ill make you food.
Its fine. More than that, how do you feel?
Eumnow that you ask, what happened? Last thing I rember is reading the skillbook.
You fell asleep while learning the skill.
How long?
Ten days.
Haaa?
Didnt I tell you last ti? That I fell asleep for days while learning my skill.
You were telling the truth then? I thought you were making that up after ignoring my calls.
I dont lie unless it makes money.
Wow. Ten days.
She checked the ti on her phone then suddenly whipped her head to face .
Did you by any chance do any naughty things to while I was asleep?
No.
You should have.
Dont think so little of my honor. You brat.
Tap.
Ow. Whyd you hit .
Be thankful Im just letting you off with this. Anyway, you should check for your skill, no?
There was no information on her new friendship skill. We just needed to find out if she actually got the skill properly by having her close her right eye.
I just see two zeros.
One is your level and one is your proficiency. Since you only have two numbers, it seems you dont get any reward pointsthen could it be a skill you have to activate? I guess it could also be a passive skill.
Explain please.
Im saying I dont know what it is. We need to figure it out slowly.
Is it going to be useful though?
You dont trust ?
I trust you. Almost too much.
She said this and followed up with a big sigh.
Why is she sighing like that?
***
Now that she was awake, I made a round of calls to all the mbers of the party. Even though they had all experienced the dangers of an irregular, all of them responded to my summons. Most likely none of them were able to find any other job and were doing nothing at ho.
We decided to go to Baekoonsa dungeon once more. The deciding factor was because of the cheap admission fee and because we were used to it. We were a bit worried about an irregular appearing again, but you couldnt be a hunter without taking on that kind of a risk.
That didnt an we shouldnt be prepared. Just in case, I packed so chains and pepper bombs.
The raid was going well. We fought against wolves, goblins, kobolds, and even ran into a rare sli monster. But everyone did their job, and every monster died easily against my blade so we were getting through the dungeon fairly quickly.
Its way easier than the last ti we ca.
Glasses girl nodded her head with a grin. I answered back.
Thanks to manager Kim doing so well.
Hm. Who said I ever skimped on my job.
Naah. Its not because of manager Kim. Its thanks to our party head being so good at attacking.
Cho Youngoo said with a small smirk. Seeing that the ever prideful manager Kim didnt say anything to that, it seed all of them thought I was pretty strong.
My level up in focus helped in one other area aside from having stronger reflexes. I was able to fight and get rid of the enemy one by one before they could even start attacking.
Since my fights all started with going up against one enemy and then the next, winning was that much easier.
But even taking that out of consideration, there was sothing else that made my battles so ridiculously easy. I turned at looked to Jung Sooah. Could it be because of the friendship skill?
I went to her and said.
Check your skill.
Hmit went up one.
Is it because of that?
You an the monster being weak?
It might just be that we got stronger.
Every single one of our partys abilities had increased. The one who got noticeably stronger was glasses girl. In the last raid, she was able to hit her mark 1 out of 4 tis, but she was not able to hit 1 out of 3 tis. You could say that she got better in the 10 days, but if that were possible then she wouldnt have been suffering all this ti. From what I knew, she was a crappy archer for the longest ti.
Now that you ntion it, I feel like I got a bit stronger.
She said while she pointed to her bag. She had about 12 ores in her backpack. It was probably over 130 kg, but she didnt look like she was breaking a sweat at all.
That could be true. A passive skill that increases the teammates abilitiesits definitely a worthwhile skill.
Oh. Then shouldnt you give more distribution money?
Ill give you sothing extra from my share this ti.
