#Episode 8
Hidden skill.
It is a skill that only occurs to hunters who have been given a Xenix Ring, and the types are very different as it is given depending on the hunters’ attributes or characteristics.
Since the conditions for unlocking hidden skills were also very different, Minjun fulfilled the conditions for unlocking hidden skills without even expecting it.
‘First, let’s start with the elixir!’
First of all, maintaining a state of hiding was an urgent priority.
Minjun quickly drank the last remaining elixir.
The hiding state was extended again, and he unleashed the hidden skill in the gap between the large rocks.
[The hidden skill has been unlocked.]
[The hidden skill ‘Sharp Eyes’ has been acquired.]
<Sharp Eyes[Lv 1]>
▶You can temporarily check the enemy’s weaknesses.
▶If you hit the marked weak point, the opponent’s defense will drop drastically.
▶ However, if your skill level is low, it is still difficult to find out the exact weakness.
‘There are still difficulties… What does this mean?’
What was certain was that he had gained the skill to know his opponent’s weaknesses.
However, Minjun, who had no idea what the third and last phrase meant, decided that it was right to use the hidden skill first.
[The hidden skill ‘Sharp Eyes’ was used.]
After casting the hidden skill, I immediately looked at the giant vampire bat.
A creature that flails around with its huge wings.
It seemed like a struggle to find Minjun.
‘… ‘Weakness.’
I couldn’t help but tilt my head.
That’s right too.
It was true that the giant vampire bat’s weakness was clearly revealed through a hologram.
The location was not just one.
‘You have to get it right first!’
Minjun drank the last remaining magic potion and then fired an arrow at the chest area, which was marked as one of the weak points.
Easy profit-!
phut-!
‘You got it right!’
Pay close attention and hit right near the first weak point!
However, contrary to what you might think.
The giant vampire bat still looked fresh.
Wow!
“Isn’t it a weakness?”
[You are out of the critical zone.]
[Aim for another weak spot.]
In fact, its wings flapped even more.
Minjun couldn’t stay still, even if it was because of the duration of the hiding.
Next, the wings marked as the second weak point.
No matter where it was, he hoped that the place he had focused on would be a weak spot.
Hissing-
Hissing-
However, it was not easy to hit the violently flapping wings.
Even if it was a giant creature that was close to 3 meters tall, it was never easy to hit a swiftly flying object.
Min-jun fired arrow after arrow while minimizing the delay, intending to blow away all the arrows contained in the tradition.
Shook-!
‘it’s okay!’
I fired nearly 20 arrows and once again hit the marked weak spot.
Minjun focused on targeting only both wings to inflict more damage.
But, the guy was still the same.
Rather, my nerves only became sharper.
[Elixir of Stealth has 59 seconds left in effect.]
‘Why does time pass so quickly?’
The wings weren’t a weakness either.
Now there is only one place left!
It was right at the nape of the neck.
‘It’s not like we’re talking about 20 Questions. ‘I don’t have much luck either.’
Before I knew it, beads of sweat appeared on my forehead.
The time to remain hidden is now just over a minute.
For Min-jun, who had no further options, the only way was to target his real weak spot, the nape of his neck.
My arm strength seemed to be gradually decreasing, so I had to risk my life and death in the remaining minute.
[Skill Focused Fire was used.]
[There are 2 seconds left in the effect of Elixir of Stealth.]
Magic power is now depleted.
Thinking it was his last shot, Minjun let go of his grip.
grasp-!

Kuaaaaaaaaaa!!!
An arrow stuck in the center of the guy’s neck.
It was the most painful sight I’ve ever seen.
hook-!
hook-!
A giant vampire bat that gradually loses its balance in the air.
Minjun thought this was his only chance and started shooting arrows.
Kuuuuu—!!
When more than 10 arrows began to hit the nape of his neck in quick succession, he lost consciousness.
Not only did the movements become slower, but the noisy flapping of the wings also decreased significantly.
As the boy’s struggles decreased, Minjun’s hand gestures as he pulled the bowstring gradually decreased.
Only after putting nearly 30 arrows into the back of the neck was Minjun finally able to kill him.
Wow!
[The giant vampire bat has been killed.]
[The sacred magic stone has been acquired.]
[5,000G obtained.]
[All materials have been acquired.]
[Go to Blacksmith Kim Pan-seo.]
Lower jaw- Lower jaw-
Only then did Minjun even out his heavy breathing.
However, one message caught my eye.
“Holy magic stone?”
Among the many types of magic stones, this was the first time he had heard of the sacred magic stone, so Minjun was also curious.
[Special] Holy Magic Stone
Description ▶ ??
Effect ▶ ??
“what’s this?”
It certainly seems to be a magic stone, but I couldn’t find any explanation or effect.
The magic stone that the original protagonist obtained at Dad’s Palace was a C-grade ordinary magic stone. But this time it was different from the original.
“It’s the same magic stone, so it can be used as a material, right?”
In addition to 100 goblins, I also captured a boss mob.
The grade of the magic gemstone was unknown, but in Minjun’s opinion, it certainly seemed to be worth much more than the magic gemstone he originally wanted to obtain.
After taking a moment to catch his breath, he moved to leave the dungeon.
I gathered all the ingredients.
I had the expectation that if I could just deliver the collected materials to Kim Pan-seo, a decent bow would be made.
Of course, you should not forget the corpse of the boss mob.
“I guess I’ll have to take the body and go.”
The attachments and corpses obtained after hunting boss mobs were worth a lot of money in this world.
As Minjun, an avid reader, knows, even the corpse of a low-grade boss mob is worth well over 30 million won.
When I thought about that, I couldn’t just leave it alone.
“Inven!”
Minjun immediately placed the body in the inventory.
***
Kim Pan-seo’s personal workshop.
Thump-thump-thump-
Panseo Kim inspects the area around a huge furnace with a temperature exceeding 800 degrees.
I am in the process of making a check list one by one to see if there are any problems with machine maintenance.
He was deeply concerned about Cha Min-jun.
“child! I don’t know if I’m doing well. I’m worried about people for no reason… . “Aren’t you going to drag your feet like this?”
I don’t know where the sense of generosity came from, but it was difficult to 100% believe Kim Pan-seo when he said that he would get the necessary ingredients without hesitation.
That’s right too.
This is because the Cha Min-jun that he knew was quite different from today.
He was timid to begin with, and did not have any special abilities for a hunter.
In the name of a hunter, it was true that he possessed the most basic magical power, but since it was at such a minimal level, I thought he lacked potential.
That he would go out of his way to retrieve a magic stone that is said to be difficult to obtain.
Kim Pan-seo still had no choice but to doubt it.
“Ai, I didn’t send that guy for nothing! “I’m really worried.”
Finally, at the end of the day, I was about to lock all the machines in the workshop.
Suddenly the workshop door opened.
Slurp-
“!!”
The person who came through the door was none other than Cha Min-jun.
“uh?! Hey, what are you? “Is it something that’s obvious right away?”
He revealed his aspirations and came back to see me after half a day?
At first glance, I thought he had faced reality and escaped here.
However, Kim Pan-seo’s guess was completely wrong.
“You’re saying something stupid. “Okay, this is it, right?”
“to? What is this all about? “Did you really get it?”
“Can’t you see it? “What if the blacksmith doesn’t even recognize the ingredients?”
“No, how can you do this in half a day…” !”
“I never dreamed there would be so many goblins. Even if there were only 50 of them, we would have easily caught them and progressed quickly. “I did a rough count and it turned out to be well over 100.”
“what? “You caught it by yourself?”
“then? I magazine alone. “Do I know anyone else besides you?”
“… Nonsense.”
The old Minjun.
He was a cowardly hunter who couldn’t sleep all night because a goblin came out of his dream. Therefore, it was difficult for Judge Kim to understand her.
But, wouldn’t it be possible to get more than 50 Kevlar units in just half a day?
I couldn’t close my mouth when I saw the magic stone, which was the proof that I had captured the boss mob.
However, the magic stone that Minjun found was a bit different from the magic stone he had seen so far.
The original magic stone.
It is normal to have a blue color, but the magic gemstone Minjun brought was dark black.
It certainly seems like it’s a magic stone.
This kind of magic stone was something that blacksmith Kim Pan-seo had never seen before.
However, what was certain was that it seemed to be worth much more than the magic gemstone he had requested.
Even blacksmith Kim Pan-seo, who was not a hunter, could feel the energy flowing through the magic stone.
‘Since when did this guy grow so rapidly?’
At first, he suspected that he had formed a party with other colleagues to clear the gate.
But after thinking about it carefully, I looked at every nook and cranny of the corpse of the giant vampire bat, the boss mob.
I confirmed that everything he said was true.
‘The wounds on the body are all stuck with the arrows I lent them. and… … .’
Panseo Kim looked around the corpse of the giant vampire bat.
All of the arrows stuck in the body were arrows he had lent, and the positions of the arrows stuck in the body were quite sharp.
At the same time, Kim Pan-seo glanced at Cha Min-jun’s hands suggestively.
Because of how many arrows he had pulled, there were many scratches between his fingers.
However, it was just amazing that Cha Min-jun showed no signs of pain.
“What are those fingers? “First of all, put this on.”
“Okay, quickly make me a bow.”
“Fussy. wait.”
Min-jun applied the ‘healing herb’ given by Pan-seo Kim to the joints of his fingers.
Healing herbs not only had the effect of quickly healing the skin in case of minor wounds, but also quickly restored a small amount of stamina.
‘Tch, if you had something like this, give it to me before you go.’
I applied it here and there to the wounds on my fingers, and the wounds began to heal quickly.
While we are amazed at the effectiveness of healing herbs.
A message appeared saying that Minjun had completed the quest.
[Quest completed.]
[Agility and mastery have increased slightly.]
[Strength mastery has increased significantly.]
[Strength rating has increased from E to E+.]
[40,000G was obtained.]
“!!”
While Kim Pan-seo was away for a while.
Minjun opened the status window and checked his stats.
▶Status Window◀
Name ▶ Cha Min-jun
Age ▶ 20 years old
Affiliation ▶ Xenics Academy 1st year

Skill ▶ Concentrated Fire [Lv 2] Hail Shot [Lv 2] Sharp Eyes [Lv 2]
Gold ▶ 45,000G
In addition to the strength stat increasing.
I also started accumulating some amount of money.
However, there was still a limit to purchasing talent from the talent market to this extent.
Soon, Pan-seo Kim, who had been away for a while, reappeared.
“It’s a bow that has been lying around for a while, but if you fuse it with the materials you brought, it will become a useful bow. “It is a bow that has also been used by rangers and hunters.”
“okay? “Anyway, the magic stone feels a little different from the existing one, so it’s okay, right?”
“What, is it going to be damaged? “Even if it gets damaged, you can ask for it.”
“… … shut up.”
