Not too long after combing through a good portion of the Systems present in this space, Min-ho finally ca across a suitable candidate, who was getting a ton of Gifts in rapid succession.
Information given to Min-ho by the flashing lights running across the wire.
Min-ho wondered what was so special about this Z-Strear that made him get so many Gifts. But not wanting to think deeply into it, he ignored this fact and focused on the most important thing.
Expanding the sub nu, Min-ho froze for a mont, trying to believe what he saw.
[—Views: 183]
[—Gifts: Iced Pepsi(41), Taco(28), Inspirational Tablet(12), Magic Mansion(2)]
[—Affinities: Ghastly Touch]
[—Inventory: Empty]
’Twenty-eight Tacos, twelve Inspirational Tablets, two Magic Mansions.’ He listed the Gifts out, as though doing so would make what he was seeing any less real.
To say he was jealous in this mont wouldn’t be a lie, yet he was more astonished than anything else.
This Z-Strear had just gotten here like everyone else. And already, he had accumulated so many Gifts, with more coming in by the second.
An Iced Pepsi would fetch the Z-Strear 10 Coins, a Taco would equate to 50, Inspirational Tablets were 100 Coins, and a Magic Mansion was a whopping 5,000 Coins.
He didn’t have to count to know this Z-Strear had accumulated an ungodly amount of Coins, and it just kept coming.
Gulping, Min-ho called on the search nu with his mind. Once it appeared, he typed in his own na, so his System appeared beside him.
Then, he imdiately opened the sub nu, detached the Cord from his Gifts, and replaced it with that of the Coin-enriched Z-Strear.
Within the second, the Gifts began to flow into Min-ho’s System, and the automated voice rang in his head, followed by the screens detailing his Gifts.

Min-ho’s heart rate spiked as he watched the Gifts flood in. He couldn’t believe it no matter how hard he tried.
***
The Coins were coming in nonstop. After only 10 minutes, Min-ho had acquired over 1,000 Coins. But no matter how big it sounded, it in actuality was not much in the grand sche of things.
Finding this to be the perfect ti to investigate his System, Min-ho turned to it and began his inspection.
[Na: e Min-ho, Rank: E]
[Affinities, Equipnt]
[Inventory, Shop]
[Coins: 0]
’It’s not there,’ he thought, narrowing his gaze to the section titled ’Developer Options’. But that much made sense; he was in it after all. At least he thought so.
Looking at his System, Min-ho was already familiar with what it would entail. Countless articles, comics, animations, and movies had familiarized the world with Systems.
Yet he still wanted to check everything because, as it turns out, his System was an anomaly.
Ignoring the ’Na’ section, he focused on the ’Rank,’ and it expanded, replacing the contents of the screen with new texts.
[—Rank—]
[Rank: E, Tier 3]
[Coins For Next Tier: 0/500,000]
As expected, he needed 500,000 Coins to get to the next Tier. The Coins he currently possessed were not even 1% of the total he needed to grow in power.
Feeling a little overwheld, Min-ho went back to the previous screen with a thought, then he expanded Equipnt.
[—Equipnt—]
[Helt: None, Armor: None]
[Gauntlets: None, Boots: None]
[Relics: None]
’Of course there’s nothing here,’ he thought, then removed the screen in favor of the next.
[—Inventory—]
[Inventory Slots: 10, Items Available: 0]
[Item List: None]
Once again, he had nothing. But this did not matter in the slightest. Min-ho just wanted to confirm his System was what he expected from it, and not anything else. And if it was different, he needed to know to use it to its fullest.
Feeling a bit disappointed his Inventory was the sa, he opted for the next item on his main nu, the Shop.
[—Shop—]
[Weapons, Gear, Relics, Potions, Consumables]
Like last ti, he selected the option ’Weapons’.
[——Weapons——]
[Swords, Shields, Spears]
[Daggers, Bows, Arrows]
[Bludgeons, Lances, Bombs, Others]
Min-ho’s gaze was snagged on ’Daggers’ almost instantaneously. Without much hesitation, he expanded that nu.
[———Daggers———]
[Plain Dagger, Bone Dagger, Casalis’ Tooth, Korvix Fang, Butcher Needle, Siren Stinger, Gargoyle Blade, Vampiric Edge, Last Kiss]
The options were vast, yet he knew how they were generally sorted.
Just to confirm his assumptions, he expanded the first option.
[[Plain Dagger]]
[Rank: E, Tier: 3]
[Durability: 5/5]
[Enchantnts: None]
[Description: Simple dagger made from plain steel. The dagger’s weak durability makes it an unideal weapon of choice for combat. Rather, it is used as a last resort in tis of desperate need.]
[Price: 200 Coins]
[Purchase]
Min-ho could guess this was the weapon which Savior had stolen from her dead assailant. It was very cheap, and its specifications equated to its price tag. It was also the first weapon on the list, as they were sorted in ascending order of weakest to strongest.
And thus, cheaper to much more expensive.
Returning to the previous screen, Min-ho decided to select the last weapon just to get a good grasp of how much the more powerful weapons were.
[[Last Kiss]]
[Rank: E, Tier: 1]
[Durability: 500/500]
[Enchantnts: Death’s Embrace, The Plague, Rotten Flesh]
[Description: A dagger made by the god of death himself. Though its durability is sothing to be desired, it more than makes up for this weakness by ensuring death to whoever is on the opposite end of its blade.]
[Price: 10,000,000]
[Purchase]
