With a brilliant light, the chest opened.

[You have acquired 24 medium blue potions.]
Even though Seol could put the other items into his inventory without a second thought, the two clothes caught Seols eye.
Oho said Karen.
She lifted the two pieces of clothing, like she was amazed by them.
Theyre 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. Ill return it to you.
Pass.
Seol grabbed the two pieces of equipment and checked their stats.

Seol changed into them without even speaking a word.
The viewers laughed at Seols natural reaction to it.
- LMFAOOO Honestly the Garment of Stones a bit embarrassing to wear now.
- 1000% I wouldve changed right away as well.
- There really wasnt anything good in the auction house either
- He did wear it for a long time Its about time he let the Garment 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 garment up until now, also knew that it was time 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 Galifas Robes at the perfect time, he was practically a brand new person.
[[Training Uniform of False Prophecy]

Bonus Effect: +4 to All Stats.]
- Honestly, just give this to Jamad.
- Yeah, you trash master!
- You bitch!
- Yo, that was too far.
- My bad.
- Jamad still looks like a homeless dude, come on.
- Snowmans a shitty owner who makes Jamad go around naked with nothing but ski gloves.
- By the way, I cant believe this Adventure dropped two Treasure quality items when its a Solo Adventure.
- Theyre Treasure quality items because its a Solo Adventure. This was an Adventure that would have been hard for a party too.
- Thats true.
The moment Seol saw the training uniform, he immediately thought of Jamad.
Since Jamad was still wearing the basic equipment given to him when he was first summoned, it was about time Seol slowly gave him pieces of equipment to increase his specs.
[You have equipped Jamad, the Tyrant, with Training Uniform of False Prophecy.]
...Are you finally going to take care of me now? Still, thanks.
Jamad equipped himself with the uniform that Seol gave him in the Shadow Space.
- I dont think Ive ever seen Jamad not complain.
- Even if he complains, he still thanks Snowman though.
- Jamad finally wont be naked now.
After dealing with the two pieces of equipment, Seol looked at the other chest remaining.
Its the additional reward.
For some reason, Karen was sitting in front of the chest, not opening it.
Seol, surprised by her unexpected actions, asked her a question.
Why arent you opening it?
Because you told me to not open them? That they werent mine?
Well, thats true, but
Im not the type that enjoys being scolded.
Then why are you sitting in front of the chest then?
Because Im still curious about it.
Seol let out a smile and confirmed 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?
- Thats it?
- Huh? Kids these days want way too much! Back in my day
- Why is Snowmans upset face so funny LOL
- You can even see Karen laughing behind him hahaha
I guess there was pfft nothing much?
......

A sword that has been destroyed and left with only the handle.
Basic Effect: N/A

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

Defense: 70
Durability: 80/80

A pair of gloves with a long neck.

Bonus Effect: There is a 2% chance your rewards improve by a rank. There is a 1% chance you gain additional rewards.]
This ones ambiguous.
The bonus effects werent 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
Dont you think theyre way too pretty to do that?
...What?
Karen quickly grabbed the gloves and held them tightly.
Could I take them?
Their effects really arent that great, though.
You shouldnt expect too much out of equipment! Well, amateurs like you could have fantasies about fantastic items, but in my eyes, the eyes of a trained knight, I can tell immense
- My ears are starting to bleed
- Noona you can just take that, noona
- Snowman: Im telling you, I bought the tiara from this store just 2 hours ago! What? You want me to bring a receipt? Why cant I just get a refund?!
- Snowmans expressions are worse now than when he got the gloves LMFAOOO
Seol nodded, You can use those gloves for now.
Really? Really? Youre not allowed to go back on it, alright? Im really going to use it, okay?
We can think about this later if we find better equipment for you.
Karen put on the gloves with a touched expression.
It fits me perfectly
- Equipment 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.
Thats why Seol felt strange when he saw how happy she was from wearing those gloves with an unsophisticated color.
Jamad then chimed in from the Shadow Space.
Youre 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 dont think its something that you, a stinky old troll, should be saying?
...Damn it, we wont be able to get our moneys worth from her.
Its not like Im racist though so dont take it to heart, you old troll.
Look, just call me a troll. I might be a troll but Im not old.
Ah, sorry.
- I cant 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]
Related Achievement: A Friend of a Friend (Adventure: Ember)
Bonus Effect: Regardless of whoever you are talking to, they will trust you a little bit.]
[[Special Title: Challenger]
Related Achievement: An Insurmountable Gap (Adventure: Ember)

[[Special Title: Outlaw]
Related Achievement: Dice are Merely 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 Conmans effects but I accidentally went too deep while I was reading the special titles.
- Hes in too deep
- Are these titles for real?
- Isnt Challenger completely broken?
- Outlaw looks more broken to me
-Having a reroll is disgustingly OP. God damn it LOL
- This is why names are super important LOL If he didnt have the man part in Conman it probably wouldve led to him getting tricked more haha.
- Conman has no restrictions though so the effects are pretty good too, though
- Dont listen to them, Conman. You did nothing wrong!
Seol was extremely 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 somewhat 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 Seols gaze, looked back at him.
The two looked at each other for quite a while.
Something was off.
- The End
- And the couple lived happily ever after.
- Why the fuck isnt she going into the Shadow Space? LMFAOOO Is she incapable of reading the room?
- ???: Karuna, are you really going to make me teach her? Why arent you teaching the newbie better?
- You just gave me PTSD from my military service LMFAO
Why are you still looking at me?
I just thought it was about time we headed back.
Then we can just go?
You have to return to my Shadow Space for me 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 dont want to, though? I dont want to be with that old troll, said Karen.
Hmph, its not like I like it either. Even without you, its already cramped in here with that gloomy lump of iron sleeping in the back.
Dont call Karuna that!
Hmph. Ill think about it if you promise not to call me old.
Karen swiftly changed her tone without hesitation.
Alright, calling you old was taking it too far. Ill just call you a troll now.
...Fine. Then I wont call that lump of I mean I'll properly call my friend, Karuna, by his name. Haha
Seol knew why Jamad laughed at the end. It was because he deduced what Karens weakness was.
Its probably Karuna.
It was obvious to anyone, as she always tried to get her way but acted like that whenever it involved Karuna.
Regardless, its quite troublesome if you try to go around with that appearance.
Im just a shadow, who cares Ah! Are Shadow Summoners oppressed in this era or something? I didnt know
Theyre not but theres nothing good that comes from standing out.
What? This was all because of something like that?
Flare
[Karen used Haze.]
[Karens Disguise activates.]
Karen brought both her hands to her face and covered it with her hands. Flames burst out when she touched her face, scaring Seol.
Karen!
Stop being such a baby, see! Its fine now, right?
...What? H-Hold on.
Seol had been surprised by Karen many times before, but this was on another level.
Her face, shockingly, no longer looked like it was made out of shadows.
What do you think? Its perfect, right?
Youre 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 seemed 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 dont have clothes.
My armor? Oh, wait, my armors all destroyed. I thought you said that you didnt want to travel with a shadow, though?
Thats.. Sigh Just go into the Shadow Space.
Hm I dont want to, though, so what should we do? Maybe Ill think about it if you buy me clothes
Fine. Ill look into it the moment we get back.
Alright. Ill do it since youre going that far~
- He fell for it.
- Snowman, the weakest in the party.
- ???: Come back, Karuna Come take back your sister
- Snowman must hate Karens lol
Fwirl!
Karen returned to Seols 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 moments later, he was transported to near Nobira.
And he saw a few messages.
[Next is the Points Leaderboard up to Adventure 8.]
Ding
[Your information is set to Private.]
[You have 1,312,300 Points.]
They were the same messages that always came up.
However, what came up right after wasnt the Points Leaderboard that Seol expected. It was something else entirely.
[You have surpassed 1,000,000 Adventure Points.]
[You have earned the achievement 'A Step on First Snow'.]
[You have earned the title 'Affluent'.]
...Huh?
