"You mean, if you upgrade the shop, there might be something like that?"

Jung Daesik frowned and said.

"I understand that you don't know anything. But you can think logically even with your tin head. I'd like to ask about the possibility. I upgraded the shop to level 5, so it's possible to have this kind of skill in 6th. Can't you guess? Even if you don't know the exact level, you can roughly guess."

Entropy was silent for a moment.

Jung Daesik waited because he knew he was making unprecedented demands.

He hadn't had much of a conversation with entropy so far.

He was basically a helper, and Jung Daesik had never asked anything other than conveying information.

Entropy also did not answer unanswered questions or answer ambiguous questions.

So he wondered if the answer that he might need to upgrade the store would come back, but is it because the entropy also grew as the store developed?

Entropy came up with a very plausible reasoning.

"Huh? Yeah. Yeah, that's right. I was wondering what you thought. Tell me."

"Why?"

"Aha! Are you saying that the skills you buy from the shop affect other people as well?"

"In the same vein, are you saying that there is a good chance that there is a skill that enhances the condition of others or develops an ability?"

“77%, is it a lucky number?”

Jung Daesik had expectations for the hopeful words of entropy.

If you can make others stronger with your ingenuity like entropy conjecture, it might be able to quench the thirst of Choi Hee or Ki Chul-min.

Not only that?

Training the troops would also be effective.

It was also possible to raise his own raid to the strongest if done well.As Jung Daesik was smirking while driving with that thought, he asked a question as if entropy was puzzled.

This was also the first time.

It was unprecedented for entropy to ask a question first.

Also asking for Jung Daesik's thoughts.

Again, as the level of the store increased, entropy was growing not only in knowledge and performance, but also in intelligence and sensibility.

Jung Daesik answered, thinking that he might become more like a real person at shop level 6.

"Why, I'm asking because I'm curious. If you ask me why I'm curious about that... It's a bit embarrassing."

"Yeah, it's embarrassing. Because I have the ability to not tell other people."

Jung Daesik slowly organized his feelings as he spoke.

"When other people die, you can't become strong easily even if you work hard like a lion or a bastard. Magical power is something you are born with, and abilities are also given. There is a limit to what you can achieve through hard work. Perhaps Choi Hee or Ki Cheol-min feels the same way.

But am I different? It costs a lot of money, but in other words, if you have money, you can become strong. In fact, in such a short period of time, I became stronger at a rate that no one else could have imagined. Who would see me and say I was a porter just a few months ago?"

"After all, it seems that level 5 is the limit? It comes with empathy and understanding."

"Ugh... he was talking to himself. Are you okay?"

Jung Daesik scratched his head, looking for more words to explain.

To be honest, there was no reason for Jung Daesik to feel bad for them.

The reason I couldn't tell the truth was because I had to keep a secret, and Jung Daesik wasn't getting stronger without paying anything.

But for Jung Daesik, getting stronger was only a means.

His goal was always money, and he did not earnestly wish to become stronger like Choi Hee or Ki Chul-min.

If Jung Daesik had been in Ki Chul-min's position, he would never have said he would join the Fenrir unit.

The mission of the Fenrir unit was difficult to digest with Chul-Min Ki's ability, and he could have lost his life if he made a mistake.

In that case, it was much more beneficial to be held in a stable one-eyed unit.

Still, Cheol-Min Ki spurs him out and says that he dares to join the Fenrir unit.

Only to learn the secret to becoming stronger from Jung Daesik.

Seeing you put so much effort into it makes me feel a little sad, and I feel sorry for nothing.

Probably all decent people feel the same way.

Jung Daesik thought that this ingenious ability should not come from an apathetic, materialist like himself, but should go to someone who longs to be stronger than anyone else.

Unable to say it all, Jung Daesik replied roughly.

"Oh, I don't know. It's just that. You'll understand when you're more advanced than you are now."

Entropy didn't answer, and Jung Daesik kept his mouth shut.

He did, but as he was driving quietly, he realized that he hadn't noticed when he was talking to entropy.

'...In the past, I would never have thought like this. Although I felt superior and relieved in my abilities, I would not have had any sense of useless regret or debt. I have a small nose, so why do I care about other people? Even if I had felt that way, I would have thought it was just a fuss.'

Jung Daesik was startled by the fact that he thought he wanted to help Choi Hee and Ki Cheol-Min.

'Have I changed?'

Jung Daesik could not sympathize with or understand the feelings of people like Choi Hee and Ki Chul-min, who still wish to be strong.

However, I wished that other people could see the benefits of seeing it as a sage if possible.

Jung Daesik expressed that feeling in his own way.

'okay! affordability. It's a cost-effectiveness issue. It costs a lot of money to play sage, but if I had to spend it alone, wouldn't it be a waste? If you want to draw the main story, you have to be able to use it for other people as well.'

After thinking about it, I felt a little relieved.

He was worried that he might be forgetting his purpose.

'okay. My goal is to become a billionaire! If I can make other people stronger with my abilities, I can use it to make money too.'

Jung Daesik then sighed in relief.

At last he seemed to understand why he thought he wanted to help others.

'Because people say they're kind, they definitely have more money, so people's hearts become more lenient. If there is a skill that can make other people stronger, what... how about helping?'

Jung Daesik shakes off all the gloom and steps on the accelerator while singing his hum.

Tweet!

Jung Daesik woke up to the sound of birdsong and jumped up from his seat.

'What time is it?'

He checked the time and he hadn't overslept.

No, it was actually earlier than usual.

It was the long-awaited day when Fenrir troops were confirmed, so I guess I woke up early without realizing it.

Jung Daesik called entropy while taking a shower and checked the main news of the day.I connected to the Titan server and looked at the crew's reaction to today's selection of Fenrir troops.

It wasn't an enthusiastic reaction, probably because everyone looked at the commander or colleagues, but they agreed that the showdown between the crew members today would be worth watching.

Jung Daesik also finished preparations in anticipation and went out of the house.

He drove to the headquarters of the Titan raid and went up to Kang Young-hoo's office.

Kang Young-hoo personally received the list of applicants from his secretary and handed it to Jung Daesik.

"These four are applicants."

As expected, there weren't that many applicants.

If there were many members who wanted to relocate their units, applicants would have overflowed, but basically, the atmosphere of the Titan raid was good.

As Jung Daesik did, each of them must have an attachment to the unit to which he belongs, and he must have thought to himself that he would be embarrassed if he decided to move to the Fenrir unit for nothing.

Jung Daesik, who was looking through the list including Ki Chul-min, suddenly asked a question.

"Kim Tae-hee? Who is this operator? He looks like someone I've never seen before."

Jung Daesik checked the information of all the members of the Titan Raid while recruiting the last members.

However, there was no hunter with this name.

When asked a question, Kang Young-hoo did not respond and coughed in vain.

"...The member was out on a special mission. It should not be known that the mission belonged to the Titan Raid, so the information was not disclosed. have come."

A special mission?

This isn't a peasant squad, what's the mission to keep your identity hidden?

Jung Daesik felt puzzled, but as Kang Young-hoo didn't want to ask any more questions, he had a stern face, so he didn't bother asking questions.

He seemed certain that he would be a strong man if he was to take on a solo mission anyway.

The other two were also people that Jung Daesik had noticed. In the gap, Ki Cheol-min was relatively modest. It was the same by looking at his abilities and by looking at his grades.

The character Ki Chul-min had all the elements a hunter should possess.

He was quick in judging situations, had a great sense of battle, and was not bad at his physical level or ability to apply magic.

But it was just there.

Ki Cheol-min had a small natural amount of magical power, and his ability itself was hardly seen among the awakened people who had unusual abilities. Although he has sophisticated cutting abilities, he could imitate that much with only one expensive weapon.

He's a good, but not great, hunter.

He is probably so obsessed with getting stronger because he knows that too.

'I wonder if I will be able to overcome all of these people and become a member of the corps... Aw, I don't know. He said he would come in with his skills, so he will take care of it.'

Jung Daesik cut his interest in him for the sake of fairness. And he went down to the training ground with Kang Young-hoo.
