……
Even though Seol could put the other items into his inventory without a second thought, the two clothes caught Seol’s eye.
“Oho…” said Karen.
She lifted the two pieces of clothing, like she was amazed by them.
“They’re not yours, Karen.”
“I know. Am I not allowed to even take a look at it?”
“...Well, you can.”
“Here, take it then. Did you think that I was looking at them because I wanted to? They were just in the way. I’ll return it to you.”
Pass.
Seol grabbed the two pieces of equipnt and checked their stats.

Seol changed into them without even speaking a word.
The viewers laughed at Seol’s natural reaction to it.
- LMFAOOO Honestly the Garnt of Stone’s a bit embarrassing to wear now.
- 1000% I would’ve changed right away as well.
- There really wasn’t anything good in the auction house either…
- He did wear it for a long ti… It’s about ti he let the Garnt of Stone go.
- It looks much better. He looks good in black.
- Look at how much better these clothes are sheeesh
Seol, who had been wearing the garnt up until now, also knew that it was ti for him to change his upper wear.
He had been using a low-level, low-quality item for too long, to the point that it was starting to hold him back.
And thanks to acquiring Galifa’s Robes at the perfect ti, he was practically a brand new person.

- Honestly, just give this to Jamad.
- Yeah, you trash master!
- You bitch!
- Yo, that was too far.
- My bad.
- Jamad still looks like a holess dude, co on.
- Snowman’s a shitty owner who makes Jamad go around naked with nothing but ski gloves.
- By the way, I can’t believe this Adventure dropped two Treasure quality items when it’s a Solo Adventure.
- They’re Treasure quality items because it’s a Solo Adventure. This was an Adventure that would have been hard for a party too.
- That’s true.
The mont Seol saw the training uniform, he imdiately thought of Jamad.
Since Jamad was still wearing the basic equipnt given to him when he was first summoned, it was about ti Seol slowly gave him pieces of equipnt to increase his specs.
[You have equipped Jamad, the Tyrant, with Training Uniform of False Prophecy.]
“...Are you finally going to take care of now? Still, thanks.”
Jamad equipped himself with the uniform that Seol gave him in the Shadow Space.
- I don’t think I’ve ever seen Jamad not complain.
- Even if he complains, he still thanks Snowman though.
- Jamad finally won’t be naked now.
After dealing with the two pieces of equipnt, Seol looked at the other chest remaining.
‘It’s the additional reward.’
For so reason, Karen was sitting in front of the chest, not opening it.
Seol, surprised by her unexpected actions, asked her a question.
“Why aren’t you opening it?”
“Because you told to not open them? That they weren’t mine?”
“Well, that’s true, but—”
“I’m not the type that enjoys being scolded.”
“Then why are you sitting in front of the chest then?”
“Because I’m still curious about it.”
Seol let out a smile and confird the additional reward in front of Karen.
Click.
Shine…
[You examine the additional rewards.]
[An unexpected fortune! You have received additional skill points.]
[You have acquired Gloves of Frequent Fortune.]
[You have acquired Red Lotus Sword.]
……
- The end?
- That’s it?
- Huh? Kids these days want way too much! Back in my day…
- Why is Snowman’s upset face so funny LOL
- You can even see Karen laughing behind him hahaha
“I guess… there was… pfft… nothing much?”
“......”

- That’s dud.
- Yup! It’s a dud.
Seol had so expectations for the additional rewards so he was quite disappointed. He then looked at the next reward with downcast eyes.
[[Gloves of Frequent Fortune]

‘This one’s ambiguous.’
The bonus effects weren’t that useful unless Seol consistently gathered a lot of rewards to trigger them.
And even if he did gather a lot of rewards, it was hard for him to give a clear answer as to whether those bonus rewards would be better than the items that he could potentially have instead.
‘I should put this up on the auction house.’
As Seol was thinking to himself, he noticed Karen staring holes into the gloves.
“......”
“What do you… plan to do with them?”
“Probably put them on the auctio—”
“Don’t you think they’re way too pretty to do that?”
“...What?”
Karen quickly grabbed the gloves and held them tightly.
“Could I take them?”
“Their effects really aren’t that great, though.”
“You shouldn’t expect too much out of equipnt! Well, amateurs like you could have fantasies about fantastic items, but in my eyes, the eyes of a trained knight, I can tell imnse…”
- My ears are starting to bleed…
- Noona… you can just take that, noona…
- Snowman: I’m telling you, I bought the tiara from this store just 2 hours ago! What? You want to bring a receipt? Why can’t I just get a refund?!
- Snowman’s expressions are worse now than when he got the gloves LMFAOOO
Seol nodded, “You can use those gloves for now.”
“Really? Really? You’re not allowed to go back on it, alright? I’m really going to use it, okay?”
“We can think about this later if we find better equipnt for you.”
Karen put on the gloves with a touched expression.
“It fits perfectly…”
- Equipnt are set to fit the wearer perfectly though…
- Noona… just be quiet…
- Karen(the type that gets easily touched)
- But Snowman… as always, he just has basic gloves.
- The next victim after Jamad…

Seol looked at Karen.
She was a shadow.
She had nothing, the only thing that proved her existence was her red eyes.
That’s why… Seol felt strange when he saw how happy she was from wearing those gloves with an unsophisticated color.
Jamad then chid in from the Shadow Space.
“You’re so emotional for no reason whatsoever. Is it because you were dead for so long?”
Karen responded to him without even turning around to look at Jamad.
“I don’t think it’s sothing that you, a stinky old troll, should be saying?”
“...Damn it, we won’t be able to get our money’s worth from her.”
“It’s not like I’m racist though so don’t take it to heart, you old troll.”
“Look, just call a troll. I might be a troll but I’m not old.”
“Ah, sorry.”
- I can’t keep up with their conversation at all…
- A conversation between a troll and an elf… how crazy lol.
Seol left them to talk to each other and checked the new titles he earned.
[[Title: Conman]

Bonus Effect: Regardless of whoever you are talking to, they will trust you a little bit.]
[[Special Title: Challenger]

[[Special Title: Outlaw]
Related Achievent: Dice are rely Numbers (Adventure: Ember)
Bonus Effect: When you roll below a 3 on the Travel Luck Dice, there is a 50% chance of changing your Travel Luck to 3.]
- This is insane LMFAOOOOO
- I was picking my nose while reading Conman’s effects but I accidentally went too deep while I was reading the special titles.
- He’s in too deep…
- Are these titles for real?
- Isn’t Challenger completely broken?
- Outlaw looks more broken to …
-Having a reroll is disgustingly OP. God damn it LOL
- This is why nas are super important LOL If he didn’t have the ‘man’ part in ‘Conman’ it probably would’ve led to him getting tricked more haha.
- Conman has no restrictions though so the effects are pretty good too, though…
- Don’t listen to them, Conman. You did nothing wrong!
Seol was extrely satisfied with his new titles.
Especially since he learned through this Adventure that he could face opponents with a massive level difference from him, the Challenger title looked amazing.
‘And the origin of all of this, the randomness of the travel luck, is sowhat mitigated now by Outlaw.’
The travel luck definitely played a role in the undead becoming an ancient knight in this Adventure.
This was a clear example of how awful travel luck could bring arduous trials, ones so difficult that it makes the Adventurer curse out loud.
“Fuu… all I have to do now is go back.”
After saying that, Seol looked at Karen. Karen, sensing Seol’s gaze, looked back at him.
The two looked at each other for quite a while.
Sothing was off.
- The End…
- And the couple lived happily ever after.
- Why the fuck isn’t she going into the Shadow Space? LMFAOOO Is she incapable of reading the room?
- ???: Karuna, are you really going to make teach her? Why aren’t you teaching the newbie better?
- You just gave PTSD from my military service LMFAO
“Why are you still looking at ?”
“I just thought it was about ti we headed back.”
“Then we can just go…?”
“You have to return to my Shadow Space for to go back.”
“Ah, I was wondering why you were acting like this.”
Karen dusted her butt off out of habit, even though she was a shadow now.
“I don’t want to, though? I don’t want to be with that old troll,” said Karen.
“Hmph, it’s not like I like it either. Even without you, it’s already cramped in here with that gloomy lump of iron sleeping in the back.”
“Don’t call Karuna that!”
“Hmph. I’ll think about it if you promise not to call old.”
Karen swiftly changed her tone without hesitation.
“Alright, calling you old was taking it too far. I’ll just call you a troll now.”
“...Fine. Then I won’t call that lump of— I an… I'll properly call my friend, Karuna, by his na. Haha…”
Seol knew why Jamad laughed at the end. It was because he deduced what Karen’s weakness was.
‘It’s probably Karuna.’
It was obvious to anyone, as she always tried to get her way but acted like that whenever it involved Karuna.
“Regardless, it’s quite troubleso if you try to go around with that appearance.”
“I’m just a shadow, who cares— Ah! Are Shadow Summoners oppressed in this era or sothing? I didn’t know…”
“They’re not but there’s nothing good that cos from standing out.”
“What? This was all because of sothing like that?”
Flare…
[Karen used Haze.]
[Karen’s Disguise activates.]
Karen brought both her hands to her face and covered it with her hands. Flas burst out when she touched her face, scaring Seol.
“Karen!”
“Stop being such a baby, see! It’s fine now, right?”
“...What? H-Hold on.”
Seol had been surprised by Karen many tis before, but this was on another level.
Her face, shockingly, no longer looked like it was made out of shadows.
“What do you think? It’s perfect, right?”
“You’re… not a shadow anymore?”
“Hahaha… Look at you all surprised.”
Karen had used her powers to recreate her original, beautiful form from her previous life.
The problem was that it seed like her powers were spreading everywhere, not just her face.
Flare…
As the black skin around her neck flared up and turned white, Seol stopped her.
“Hold on, you don’t have clothes.”
“My armor? Oh, wait, my armor’s all destroyed. I thought you said that you didn’t want to travel with a shadow, though?”
“That’s.. Sigh… Just go into the Shadow Space.”
“Hm… I don’t want to, though, so what should we do? Maybe I’ll think about it if you buy clothes…”
“Fine. I’ll look into it the mont we get back.”
“Alright. I’ll do it since you’re going that far~”
- He fell for it.
- Snowman, the weakest in the party.
- ???: Co back, Karuna… Co take back your sister…
- Snowman must hate Karens lol
Fwirl!
Karen returned to Seol’s Shadow Space.
And Seol quickly ended the Adventure like he was tired of everything.
Glow…
Seol was once again surrounded by particles before disappearing.
A few monts later, he was transported to near Nobira.
And he saw a few ssages.
[Next is the Points Leaderboard up to Adventure 8.]
