Part 17 Characterization
Jihoo came out of the tower.
One more day after that, and the goblin hunt was finished. Lee Hee-yeon, who was pouting a lot, had five lips protruding during that day.
“Turn it off. After all, home is the best.”
Washed in 3 days.
It was perfectly understandable why Heeyeon Lee would soak in the hot water once she was done climbing. How could a shower be this good?
[Warm Magical Lee Kang-ju (Lv. 03)]
: Unknown power has permeated into ‘Lee Kang-ju’, the 3rd most famous Joseon Dynasty pearl with magical power. It has been given a recovery function that was not originally there, and a small amount of ability increase can be expected.
A cup of hot traditional liquor enjoyed while warming oneself in hot water is the best. The combination of soft sweetness that seems bitter due to the distillation of pear, honey, and ginger. In addition to the recovery through setting intervention, it was truly the best.
‘Darkness, it was more powerful than I imagined.’
Heeyeon Lee was taken aback.
It was worth it.
Ji-hoo, who knew all the options, was embarrassingly powerful.
Each shot was fired stealthily. Besides, it seemed that Joon was aiming roughly, but he moved toward the vital points like the heart and head.
If that’s all, it’s nonsense.
The time from autoloading to aim guidance was just over half a second, and the bolt, which stored up to 12 rounds, was constantly advancing.
fit-
The bolt, which was fired with very little noise, made a roar the moment it hit her dagger.
Kwaaang-
She almost rolled back at the first step.
In an instant, he raised a lot of mana and balanced himself. However, Jihoo’s bolt, which was fired immediately, did not weaken at all.
I didn’t know that one shot would be so powerful, but it was a normal shot, not a special one. In other words, it was ‘flat’.
Kwaaang-
Quaang!
Each shot fired like a steel grate, and Lee Hee-yeon blocked or knocked them out one by one.
Jihoo was amazed again.
Even with such destructive power, I wondered if the level 4 level of force, where you could hit it with just a dagger on the spot, was really human.
When 1 shot remains from 12 shots.
Jihoo activates Active.
Kwaaang-!
… … ?
‘… … !’
She knocked one off, but was forced to move by the stealthy fire that immediately followed. It was an exquisite time difference attack, and it was much more stealthy than a normal bolt.
If it wasn’t for her sensory [talent], she would have been beaten.
“That’s what Heeyeon said.”
Since then she has been pissed off.
Is it because of surprise? Or is it because of not being able to let Jihoo out? Or was it because he felt deprived of Jihoo, who had become this strong in just two days?
All of that can be complex.
“I should give you a present.”
tuk tuk-
Jihoo patted his arm.
The recoil was offset by the high level of Umbra, but it must have been a huge burden to Jihoo, and it felt like his wrists, elbows, and shoulders had been hit with stones.
It must have been a big shock, even after drinking the potion, it still feels sore.
‘I need to add equipment related to recoil control.’
Now SP is enough.
2,000 SP obtained from hunting 10 goblins. And the SP gained from the survival time was close to 3,000 even if the last day was counted. Besides, if you add up all the various achievements and the SP you had on the 2nd day.
– Total owned SP: 8,750
This is the best SP I’ve ever had.
‘Well, if I write a useful talent, I’ll use it all up.’
Leave about 2,000.
Now, it is difficult to obtain SP through simple repetition of appraisal, recovery, strengthening, and production. It is better to leave the SP since you need to create new uses or new things.
Chow.
Jihoo got up from the bathtub.
After climbing for a few days, I lost a lot of weight.
“Dinner is meat.”
* * *
dawn the next day.
Jihoo opened the general store as usual.
[OPEN]
Open the door and shake the dust. It had been empty for about three days, and dust had accumulated in that time. Ventilate the stuffy inside air and make a cup of coffee.
‘As expected, this place is a good spot.’
Suddenly I had a lot of work to do.
Needless to say, the usefulness of [Convergence] obtained while climbing is great. If you combine the two enhanced talents and memorize… … .
“I need to replace everything.”
If you’re lucky, you might even be able to add one [History] rank.
It will take quite some time, though.
‘Previously.’
Write [characteristics].
The target consumption SP is 6,000.
Originally, I was trying to adjust my talents and abilities. However, since talent is more focused on ‘possibility’ than current efficiency, it required a period of proficiency.
Also, the SP gained in proportion to [survival time] seems to be affected by the ability level, so I’m not going to raise it if possible. It doesn’t make much of a difference even if you lift it anyway.
Because I have no talent for using my body.
‘There is almost no way to obtain the original characteristics.’
double characteristics.
dual character.
someone calls it
Usually, there can only be one [characteristic], and only a select few get two or more characteristics.
or really lucky
Top clear reward.
[Legend] It is the power of an abnormal artifact.
‘But I can.’
I thought a lot about what to do with it.
“I don’t like [rigid bodies] that strengthen the body… … .”
Right now, Jihoo has a clear limit.
Jihoo has a weaker body than normal people. If you don’t train by tearing muscles and grinding bones, you have to invest a lot of SP to show visible performance.
Inefficient.
“Status window.”
It’s been a while since I checked the status window.
It has definitely changed.
『Status Window』
Name: Shin Ji-hoo
Age: 35
Power: Lv. 01
Rating: None
Power level is still 1.
This is because they do not have combat-related [characteristics] or [talents], and their abilities are no different from those of ordinary people.
『Basic Abilities』
[Muscle 7] [Magic 18]
[Stamina 11] [Spirit 22]
[Endurance 11] [Intelligence 23]
[Intelligence 8] [dexterity 30]
[Sense 21] [Perseverance 23]
Strength remained the same, stamina increased by 1. Seeing that her stamina and agility are the same, it seems that she has no talent for physical abilities.
‘He wasn’t very talented.’
This is serious enough.
Although physical abilities are considered fundamental to all talents, traits, and behaviors, they are not needed right now.
‘The talented side climbs at a different speed.’
Sense went up by 2 and magic power went up by 3. It must have been because my magic talent improved and I drew a lot of magic circuits.
From nob le mt l. co m
Mental strength increased by 1, and dexterity increased by a total of 5, from SP to 3 and production to 2.
‘Let’s not touch the ability until the plateau comes.’
SP is not worth it. Except in special cases, there is no need to upload directly.
Talent :
『Delicate Dexterity (C) [Growth – Mastery 98%]』
『Ordinary Magical Talent (D) [Growth – Mastery 54%]』
『Slightly superior mental strength (C)』
If you add a little more dexterity, your proficiency will be 100%. I don’t know how much production I’m going to have to do, but it shouldn’t be too long before I can go from C grade to B grade.
Attribute: [Setting intervention authority (EX)]
Unique Ability:
[Read (Lv. 03)]
[Setting intervention (Lv. 03)]
Special Ability:
[Memorize (Lv. 01)]
[Keyword (2/10)]
[Time for setting (Lv. 01)]
[Fusion (Lv. 01)]
“… … It has changed a lot.”
It’s only been a few weeks since I woke up.
If Jihoo wants to, he can create [History] grade artifacts. Even without setting intervention… … About 3 out of 10 became the ability to create [rare].
If you use a small amount of SP, you can print [Rare].
‘A grade appraiser, A grade craftsman.’
Two titles can be won.
I need to schedule a visit to the Appraisal Association. Because I have to get a rating renewal and a producer license. Raising the name value is also good for the supply and demand of SP.
“No matter how much you think about it, this is right.”
Jihoo decided which [characteristics] to write.
His dexterity, magic talent, mental strength, and senses encompass everything. Attributes that are helpful for crafting and magic circuits, as well as using [Umbral Shade] and using [Setting Intervention].
[Super Sense]
: All senses are extremely developed.
This is Heeyeon Lee’s [characteristic].
At first glance, it looks like a [talent], but it is a [characteristic]. [Trait] is an upward compatibility of [Talent]. In general, the talent that people are born with is still common sense, but the characteristics have ‘transcendent power’.
It means ‘out of common sense’.
‘The sense of talent is up to five senses, but the sense of characteristic is more than the sixth sense.’
[Super sense] is simple and ambiguous.
Thanks to that, the versatility increases and the limits are blurred. The level of senses can increase explosively due to the power of concentration and magical power, or grow gradually depending on specific training.
However, Lee Hee-yeon got this [feature] when she was young and struggled a lot. The overly sensitive senses were like a curse to her as a child.
‘At that time, we met for the first time.’
She and her brother found a general store of trust. It was to obtain an artifact or potion to control her sensitive senses.
At that time, [Artisan’s Street] looked shabby and nothing in Jung-gu Heating, but the human heart and skills were the best.
‘From then on, I grew rapidly up to level 4.’
problem after that.
Growth stopped after reaching level 4. Jihoo knows how hard she struggled with it.
It is said that the simplicity and ambiguity of the characteristics remove the limit, but even the level boundaries are ambiguous, so once you reach a certain level, you cannot break through the wall unless you have a special ‘enlightenment’.
‘I should make an artifact that can help.’
And then, I have to ask for it.
Let’s climb the tower again.
Witnessing how dangerous the tower was, Ji-hoo needed Lee Hee-yeon’s help, and her help was also important.
“Certainly [super sense] this is better.”
But it needs correction.
Her senses are not so sensitive that her physical ability and mental strength cannot withstand. And because of Jihoo’s nature, it’s better to be clear than simple and ambiguous.
Still, I wrote it just in case.
[Super Sense]
: All senses are extremely developed.
– A total of 32,000 SP is required.
It was ridiculously expensive.
I tried to fix it anyway, but I think I’ll have to downgrade a lot more than I thought.
so this is what i made
『Super Sense (D) [Growth Type – Mastery 0%]』
: Has a more sensitive sense than others. The super senses classified as ‘characteristics’ go beyond the five senses and provide a sense close to the sixth sense.
* [Super Concentration (Lv. 01)]
* [Trance (Lv. 01)]
writing has been completed.
I wanted to start with a C grade, but it also required 10,000 SP, so I lowered it to a D grade. It’s a growth type anyway, so I have to adapt, so it’s not a bad choice.
Instead, two additional options are included.
‘Heeyeon said it took two years to train this separately.’
refer to her characteristics.
[Trance] helps you concentrate for a relatively long time when you use magic and meditate. [Super Concentration] instantly explodes concentration and creates an extreme supersensory state.
Jihoo didn’t have the time to train for something like that, and he didn’t have the confidence to succeed. It was possible because she was also talented.
So he made it artificially.
[time for setting].
The synergy with this special ability is also the best.
For Jihoo, who lacks direct force, the use of fleeting time was more important than anything else.
– A total of 6,400 SP is consumed.
– Do you want to save?
This is within the expected range.
“Yes, save.”
A stream of light flowed.
It was the brightest light I had ever seen. The light permeated the status window and Jihoo’s body. With a tickling feeling in my heart, the world has changed.
“… … !”
All noise was blocked out and only the necessary sounds were picked up. The vision became extremely clear, and the necessary information was collected by repeating zooming in and out, and the skin and sense of smell picked up all stimuli.
I didn’t know until now.
There was so much and varied dust in the air, there was a ladybug on the potion shelf, there was a rat hole behind the front door, and there were two bird nests in the zelkova tree right in front of the general store.
I just found out
‘Is this D-class super sense?’
I could see everything from my seat.
It is heard, touched, seen, and felt.
A sixth sense is added to those five senses. Each different sense is entangled with each other to draw a picture.
‘As expected, a characteristic that surpasses talent.’
That’s what it was.
It was a completely new world for Jihoo.
Then his eyes turned to the shelf. The place is full of artifacts made by Jihoo and purchased items.
‘It’s different, it’s too lax and meager. Why did they make it like that?’
It’s confusing, but it feels refreshing.
I’m looking at a complicated and messy puzzle, but I seem to be able to see the way. A state full of confidence that it will only be a matter of time.
It was a realization.
I opened my eyes to a world I hadn’t seen before. All the knowledge, experience, and talent he had accumulated over the course of his life exploded into one.
