And that night.
Seora, who was accessing the S-class exclusive community for fun, spurted out the beer she was drinking after seeing a new article.
[Title: A Review of Suwon-cchi’s Beatings]
“Crazy. What are you talking about? When did it happen?”
Wasn’t he fine when I last saw him? Did something happen after I left?
Seora, who hastily stood up straight, clicked on the post that Sunset Guild’s leader must have written. The content was very spectacular.
[Today I went to the association to see Suwon-cchi getting beaten>< Unfortunately, I did not see the scene of him getting beaten, but looking at the situation, it seems like he was hit by the tiger whose territory was invaded?
Oh my, I felt so sorry that his pretty face was dyed blue!
Suwon-cchi, rub the egg well so that your pretty face doesn’t get bruised!]
[T/N: If you often watch K-drama or read modern K-novel, they will roll or rub boiled egg? on their wound to avoid bruise or swelling]
[Comment]
|Guardian Spirit Guildis the best| : The day finally come when I see Suwon-cchi’s face bruised! It was a good thing to visit the association today ^^7777
|Wish for permanent resignation| : He was hit by the tiger and his face is still intact? What a monster…
?|Guardian Spirit Guild is the best| : I think the tiger cut him some slack
?|Wish for permanent resignation| : Was the tiger that merciful?!
?|Hanna Ho| : Don’t worry, I won’t be merciful to you^^
?|Wish for permanent resignation| : I | | am O ve | ry ? | so | rry
?|Wish for permanent resignation| : Ple ase h ave m er cy on m e!!!!!!!
?|Hanna Ho| : So noisy, stop calling me
|Yeonhee| : Oh my gosh… Should we send a Healer?
?|Guardian Spirit Guild is the best| : I already said I’d heal him, but he refused O O
?|Yeonhee| : Oh dear…
“Oof. The president hit him personally…”
Aigoo. I can’t believe she hit that national treasure-like face. What about his teeth? Even if she cut him some slack, she wouldn’t have used normal strength. Would it be okay?
“Ugh. All of this because of a single loach.”
Looking at the crazy comments, I wouldn’t be surprised if there is news that Park Jinyong, who went to the prison, is found dead one day.
[Comment]
|Han Suwon| : You’re all very excited.
?|Sunset-ssi| : hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
?|Guardian Spirit Guild is the best| : Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
?|Wish for permanent resignation| : hahahahahahahahahahahaha
?|Hanna Ho| : I’m sorry Suwon^^
?|Yeonhee| : Oh dear…
… Park Jinyong might die really soon.
Seora briefly expressed her condolences to Han Suwon, who had become a tease of the S-classes.

It was a rainy night.
A faint light was leaking from Seora’s officetel, which was not even lit. Lightning strikes once through the thick blackout curtains covering the window, illuminating the scene in the room.
“Fufu, ufufu!:
The occasional grim laughter sound was heard, and the atmosphere was very gloomy.
“Ah, this is great. There are so many good things in the top tier item stores!”
Seora was browsing the item shop currently operated by the system.
Stores, where the Awakened could freely buy and sell items they had produced or obtained, were operated by a strict rating system. After all, the lower-level Hunters couldn’t make a lot of money, so they couldn’t buy expensive items. Seora had never had any complaints about this rating system so far.
Then, when she became an S-class and entered a higher-grade store that could only be used by B-class Hunters or higher, it was such an eye-opener for her.
Oh my gosh. The superiors are living watching these things! There are so many precious items!
There are also the items that I got while robbing two dungeons by myself, so I can make money a lot of money by selling them!
“Money, money…!”
Charuk! As coins piled up in the balance with the sound of money pouring, Seora’s face was colored with happiness.
“As expected, the items from Level 3 and 4 dungeons are sold at high prices!”
Werewolf’s claws, Silver Wolf’s hide, and Land Giant’s core were all good items for making equipment, so they sold very well.
Even the ones she had put up at a high price ended up being sold out after a while.
“I never thought I’d see so many coins piled up in my life.”
With this amount of coins, I will be able to obtain enough decent items and equipment.
“I already have two weapons, so let’s take a look at the equipment.”
I have no need for equipment to increase accuracy or destructive power…
[Administrator: o(*???)?]
“Oh, you want to help?”
Come to think of it, I heard that the original Entities help the contractors grow a lot. The administrator isn’t an Entity, but in any case, it’s a supporter of mine, so where should I get some help?
“Whoa, is it because you’re the administrator? It is different from the Entities.”
What’s different from them was that it could open and close Seora’s stores just now, perhaps because it was a system administrator. It was very comfortable because Seora didn’t have to lift a hand.
“Oh, is it done?”
The administrator showed a few items for Seora to consider.
“A necklace with a Stealth effect. As a long-distance attacker, I’d like to have one.”
In fact, thanks to Hit which could freely change its appearance, Seora could deal with her enemies from a short to long-distance, but being able to hide oneself from the enemy would be helpful in many ways.
“This one has an Agility effect.”
The second was an anklet with a small wing-shaped pendant.
“Agility increases with the Haste skill, which increases the user’s speed explosively in an instant? Man, it sounds good, but it’s expensive.”
It’s a good item for people who could deal with both short and long-distance, but it was more expensive than the necklace with stealth effect because it was accompanied by an extra effect.
“Ayy, I’ll just play like a rich man.”
She only bought two accessories, but her coins were quite reduced before she knew it. Still, she got the item she needed the most to hide her identity, so Seora decided to appease her regrets at this point.
After completing the payment, two items were dropped from the store. Seora put them on right away. With the anklet on, she felt her body was already lightened, perhaps thanks to the Agility effect.
As she stroked the necklace hanging from her neck, her mouth gaped open.
I’m also wearing A-grade items now! I can access the top-tier stores as I like! This is it!
“Elevation of status, elevation of status.”
The small citizen, realizing the true taste of shopping, began to search the store again while humming.
“Huh?”
At that time, a new item popped up as if the administrator had manipulated it.
A black jacket with a fairly stylish design, with large pockets and a belt at the waist, looked great for putting stuff in.
“It’s so cool. It looks like something that came out of a fashion magazine, but it’s actually a combat jacket? Defensive capability with basic Stealth skill, damage caused by the same type as the wearer is halved, and attack power is doubled for 10 minutes when the HP falls below 20%… What?”
What am I seeing now? Stealth and defense aside, what—? Damage caused by the same type as the wearer is halved?
“Then what? Are you saying that the attacks of the shooter-type attackers hardly work for me?”
[Administrator: o(^?^)o]
“Crazy!”
Crazy. This is very crazy. Such a fraudulent ability.
The number of shooters and rangers was less than that of mages or swordsmen. However, the instantaneous destructive power was higher than that of them, and halving the attack power was a huge advantage.
That means one didn’t have to worry about snipers aiming at them wherever they were. Besides, that wasn’t the only function.
“The additional effect doubles the attack power.”
Although there was a condition that one’s HP should fall below 20%, it meant that they were eventually given a chance to kill an enemy just before dying. There was no better item than this for a Hunter.
“Awesome!”
Top-tier stores sell these crazy items! Man, things I haven’t seen in the sub-stores are a big hit here.
Kyaaaa. Seora burst out an excited laugh and checked the price of the jacket.
[Equipment Information]
Name: Regeneration Jacket (L-class)
Type: Equipment
Unique Characteristic: Halves the effect of damage dealt by the same type as the wearer.
Secondary Ability: When HP falls below 20%, ATK is doubled for 10 minutes.
Price: 80 billion coins
“…”
What did I just see?
“E-E-E-Eight—”
I rubbed my eyes several times and looked at the information window again, but nothing changed.
“… Eighty billion?”
Considering the grade and ability, it was worth the price.
But, still, though, isn’t this too much?
“The money I earned from selling items today is 20 million coins…”
Even a decent S-class wouldn’t buy that.
Of course, if she worked hard after notifying the country of the change of her rank, she would be able to buy it someday… But she couldn’t bear the hassle just to wear a jacket.
Seora suddenly became infinitely depressed.
“Administrator, why do you make me sad by showing me this? Uungh. Eighty billion coins is not like sheets of leaves. Uuungh. I want it, uuungh. But I have no money.”
Seora buried her face in her bed and started crying.
I want it. I want to have it so much. I really want that crazy L-class jacket.
If I had that jacket with such fraudulent characteristics, there would be nothing more I would be really envious of…!
“Hicc, hicc, hicc, hicc.”
Seora stroked the L-class jacket, which was very well-designed. It was beyond the screen, so she couldn’t really touch it, but she wanted to touch it even like this.
“If I earn 80 billion coins, I will definitely go buy it… It can’t be sold until then. You have to stay calm here, alright? Don’t get sold for me…”
With a reddened nose, Seora left the store. She had been happy when she bought the two accessories, but her heart had changed in an instant.
Seora swallowed her tears and slipped into the duvet.
“Huaaaaa.”
A mournful cry flowed through them.
[The system administrator’s delightful laughter shakes the entire system!]
However, at that moment, in the message that popped up, Seora had no choice but to remove the blanket.
“You’re laughing!? That’s too much! How could you laugh so much that it shakes the entire system!? How can you laugh at a time like this!?”
In that short scream, Seora’s youthful face was covered with tears and snot.
You enjoy my pain!
“You’re a bad guy, seriously!”
[The system administrator’s loud laughter shakes the system.]
[The system administrator cares deeply about the sole contractor.]
“… Mm?”
Seora, who was wiping away her tears, widened her eyes at the message that appeared at that moment.
The administrator… cares deeply about the sole contractor?
“… Did you like me crying that much?”
Seora stared into the air.
[The system administrator gives a gift to the sole contractor.]
[Equipment has been added to your inventory.]
“…”
