[This effect lasts as long as the female remains alive during combat. ]

What this phrase means.

That is, if there is at least one female or female type among the enemy group.

This means that the stat increases will continue to be maintained.

Honestly, it is safe to say that among a group of living creatures, there is no case where there is no female.

This is especially true since, in this world inside the gate, there does not seem to be a division of combat responsibilities according to male and female.

Unless there are only males, or there are no gender distinctions at all.

You can receive the stat double effect at any time.

There it is.

“Ki, kiik…”

The expression of one of the goblins in front of them distorts and he begins to flinch.

[The female monster temporarily stiffens and shrinks. ]

An alarm that only Jihoon Park can see.

And according to the distinction between male and female monsters that can only be seen by his eyes.

This effect was activated on goblins marked with ♀.

‘Wow, that’s crazy.’

As a result, the female monster temporarily had no power in front of Park Ji-hoon.

In other words, while the female is rigid, she deals with the remaining males with increased stats.

Finally, finish off the cowering and trembling female.

‘It’s a fucking scam.’

I already understood that it was a fraud skill.

The more I learned about it, the more it became clear that it was an absurd skill.

“…Hmm?”

At that time, Park Ji-hoon noticed something strange.

‘female? ‘She’s a female.’

Female goblin.

female monster.

When I thought about it, I met the very being that I had only dreamed of.

Pointy ears.

Frayed clothes that cover only important parts.

Other than that, the skin was smooth and slightly greenish.

Every time I rush in and attack, my chest and buttocks shake and seem to be exposed…

There is no “…!”

It’s just a goblin.

Dull green skin and ugly breasts that you can’t tell if they exist or not.

It didn’t even cover it properly.

‘That… that’s not a female monster!’

Of course, in an F-rank dungeon, goblins that aren’t even bosses won’t appear as beautiful humanoids.

I knew it in my head.

But seeing it in person like this before my eyes.

Park Ji-hoon felt anger at the terrible reality.

“Let’s kill him. If you kill it and get rid of it, it becomes nothing.”

He made up his mind.

Let’s kill that insignificant female goblin who can’t fulfill his dreams.

Then he said that he had never met a female monster and his romance would not be broken.

Pabat—!

As soon as he made his decision, he rushed forward.

The weapon he is holding is a spear, a historically proven weapon that even beginners can easily use.

It thrusts its spear forward and charges towards the female goblin.

Because the stats have already reached E rank or higher.

His quick charge was unstoppable at the level of goblins.

Especially female goblins who are rigid due to the alpha male effect.

Phew!

“Keeee!!”

“Die, you ugly monster!!”

Park Ji-hoon’s spear pierced the female goblin’s chest in one go.

I saw that and the two male goblins next to me.

The instructor and other rookie hunters who were with him.

I just stared at it blankly.

Meanwhile, another notification window appeared in front of Park Ji-hoon.

Tiring~

[The female monster was defeated for the first time. ]

[All stats permanently increase by 1. ]

[You have acquired an F-rank low-level magic stone. ]

Obtain magic stones dropped by monsters.

And due to the effect of the female hunter skill, the stats were permanently increased.

Training new hunters is difficult.

Hunters are very valuable talents even if they are of low rank.

We need to educate ourselves well so that we don’t end up dying unexpectedly.

However, it cannot be helpful to the extent that it is not an experience.

The key is to maintain this line well.

In order to maintain that line, the instructors kill just one goblin to brighten the mood.

I was going to leave the remaining two to the rookies.

however.

Pabat—!

Suddenly, one of the rookies next to me jumps out.

‘W-what?!’

A very sudden situation.

Who on earth?

At first, I thought it was Kang Si-kyung, a C-ranked rookie.

Because he was the most confident and had the highest rank.

however.

‘…Park Ji-hoon Hunter?’

The one charging forward with his spear thrust forward was none other than Park Ji-hoon.

Among these, the hunter received the lowest F rank.

But it’s strange.

‘That speed… is it really F rank?’

Strangely fast charging speed.

Isn’t he quite fast even among E ranks?

This means that the strength and agility stats are at that level.

‘Is it a skill!’

If Park Ji-hoon, an F-rank hunter, shows a higher level of charging, there is only one answer.

There is that kind of skill.

He probably has acceleration skills or dash skills.

Skills specialized for combat.

Although it is F rank, I thought that with that skill, I would be a pretty good hunter even at F rank.

‘No, that’s it too.’

Attitude is more important than skill.

When everyone, even Kang Si-kyung, who was proud of being awakened to C rank, couldn’t step forward.

He went out alone.

Although he seemed hesitant at first.

I ended up running into an unknown monster I had never seen before.

Never act rashly, thinking that anything can happen inside the gate.

This is the basic mindset of a hunter.

But you can’t clear the gate if you’re just scared.

When the time comes, you have to go into battle.

Especially if the opponent is someone you can beat.

‘…That’s amazing.’

However, it is not easy to attack a monster you have never seen before, even holding a blade.

There it is.

Phew!

“Keeee!!”

“Die, you ugly monster!!”

Killed.

With the same momentum as it charged, it stabbed through the chest without hesitation and killed the almost humanoid monster known as a goblin.

‘…He is the most talented hunter.’

The courage to attack without fear when it is time to attack.

The mentality to pierce humanoid monsters without hesitation.

Hunters enter the gate, kill creatures called monsters, and obtain the loot.

Park Ji-hoon, the lowest F-rank hunter, was showing an attitude suitable for such a hunter.

It was a completely different story from Kang Si-kyung, who was so excited about being awakened to C rank, but was shaking when the time came.

“Keeek!”

“Keee!”

At that time, two goblins, angry that one of their colleagues had been killed, rushed towards Park Ji-hoon.

However, Park Ji-hoon was not in a position to properly block the two guys’ attacks.

[ All female monsters have disappeared. ]

[Stats return to their original state. ]

‘…Oops! The males should have been punished first!’

He was too preoccupied with killing a female goblin that was different from his ideals and was not female.

Thanks to this, I was once again surrounded by two goblins with poor F-rank stats.

I held out my window and looked out for them, but I wasn’t confident.

‘My stats went up one by one, but I’m still weak…’

Strength, quickness, stamina, horsepower.

Since they all went up one by one, I definitely feel like I have become stronger than when I was not in combat.

Because the double splash disappeared, it was much weaker than when it had just charged at the female.

I have no proper combat experience and no skill in handling weapons.

It was not enough to deal with two goblins.

at that time.

“Fuck!”

Whoops!

One goblin’s head was shattered in an instant, and blood, bones, and what appeared to be brain matter were scattered everywhere.

“Why are you coming forward? I will kill them all.”

As soon as Park Ji-hoon pierced one, the atmosphere was revitalized, and Kang Si-kyung, relieved of his tension, stepped forward.

‘…blood on my fist.’

It wasn’t even a sword he was holding, but his left fist, which wasn’t holding a weapon, was covered in blood.

Should I say C rank?

He exploded the goblin’s head with his fist.

“Fuck you!”

Wow!

“Keeee!”

He followed suit, popping the head of the remaining goblin, who was trembling and retreating.

The battle has completely ended.

Two birds were killed.

In addition, he showed off his tremendous power.

However, Kang Si-kyung’s expression was not good.

It seems he is angry and unable to understand that he was scared by something like a goblin.

‘If anything, it was my first time there…’

F-ranked Park Ji-hoon, whom I thought was the most annoying.

Kang Si-kyung’s pride was seriously hurt.

Of course, either that or not.

Park Ji-hoon was thinking of the goblin from earlier.

‘Fuck, aren’t all monsters like that? At least the boss will be different, right? The boss… will be different…?!’

I hope, deep in my heart, that the boss does not look like such an ugly goblin.

#

“Hmm.”

Park Ji-hoon grabbed the female goblin earlier and looked at the dropped magic stone in his hand.

It is very small, about the size of a human finger.

The lowest among F ranks, ‘F rank low level magic stone’.

‘But this alone costs tens of thousands of won.’

Although it is very small, it still has enough energy to provide enough electricity for a household for a month.

Even this tiny, F-rank low-grade magicite costs about that much.

Later, if you go to C-rank or B-rank magic stones, it was natural that they would cost hundreds or tens of millions of won.

‘I guess that’s why F-rank hunters are also said to have the minimum annual salary of a large company.’

No matter how the F-rank 6-person raid group is divided, each person will take 1.5 to 2 million won per gate.

If you go to the gate about 3 times a month on average, your monthly profit will be 500 to 600 won.

If you work really hard and visit multiple engineering schools, there are F-rank hunters who earn close to 10 million won a month.

You might think it’s not a big deal considering you’re fighting for your life.

Hunters receive many benefits from the government, such as tax exemption.

In reality, it feels much bigger than what most office workers earn between 500 and 600 won.

When you become a C-rank hunter, you can go to a 10-person engineering team and earn a few thousand per month even if you divide it among 10 people.

Needless to say, if you go all the way to A-rank hunter and S-rank hunter.

‘When I became a hunter, money wasn’t a special purpose… but looking at it this way, it’s still good.’

The money I was earning for a month while working part-time, is all I can earn once I enter the gate.

I can’t help but feel good.

“Hmph, I like it so much with just one. This is why F rank.”

Kang Si-kyung, who was watching Park Ji-hoon next to him, snorted.

As a C-ranked person, he plans to join a guild soon and make money worth tens of thousands or even hundreds of millions.

Park Ji-hoon, who was happily looking at Ma Jeong-seok, which was worth less than 200,000 won, couldn’t help but look the same.

“……”

Of course, Park Ji-hoon was not very interested in Kang Si-kyung.

However, I was jealous that because my rank was high, I could enter a high-rank gate and have a high chance of encountering female-type monsters.

‘Anyway, if I raise my stats hard, I’ll get there quickly.’

He didn’t need to be in a hurry.

Because he had a rare skill that raised his stats, Female Hunter.

Anyway, they were walking through the forest, chatting like this.

After the first battle, the rookies’ tension was completely relaxed.

Park Ji-hoon, the lowest rank F rank hunter.

From the way he kills the goblin without difficulty.

And in the sight of Kang Si-kyung, a trustworthy C-rank hunter, crushing a goblin.

Now there is no longer any reason to be afraid.

Thanks to this, the progress was much faster, compared to the distance I covered in 10 minutes when I first started.

The distance covered in the first 10 minutes after the first battle was almost doubled.

Just as I was thinking that the instructors were also slowly becoming more comfortable.

“…Something is strange.”

One of the instructors noticed something strange.
