episode_0008
by fnovelpiaSince that day, I have never called Suyeon.
I decided to call her for just 5 minutes a day to find out if she was alive or dead, but since Sooyeon’s movements were being reported on the news every day, I couldn’t call her because I thought I would only get scolded for not watching the news.
Also, since the day I decided to go to work with my sister, I have been living at her house.
Living together for two weeks and a few days, we walked step by step toward the future without much friction.
Of course, the first 2 to 3 days we spent together were
“Jjolbo.”
“?”
**
“Ugh.. I was a fool for expecting more.”
“?”
**
“Didn’t I tell you yesterday before I went to bed that my door was broken and wouldn’t lock?”
“Ah, ah! I’m sorry, sister, I’ll definitely go and fix it tonight.”
“Kko…is it right? Do you have to come fix it tonight?”
**
“Just! Get out and die! Just die, are you really just fixing the door?”
There were many things that happened, but thanks to my sister’s consideration, I was able to live comfortably even though it was someone else’s house.
When I started living at my sister’s house, many changes occurred in the world.
In Korea, large corporations are already hiring people with decent skills and using them as bodyguards.
A guild created by people with useful skills or items.
In some places, armies that use skills and items have already been created.
Among them, the one that stood out the most was Suyeon.
“The guild ‘Hetsung’, which ranked 1st and 2nd in the rankings for conquering the 0th floor, will attack the 1st floor next week with 13 days left before the opening of the 1st floor…”
“The stock price rose only 2 days after the Saseong Group promised to give full support to the guild ‘Hetsung’…”
“..Amidst many concerns, Hyeseong Guild leader Jeong Soo-yeon said, ‘There is no need to worry at all.’ Dismiss it by saying…”
As I flipped through the TV channels, Suyeon’s story came out everywhere.
From the day after I left home.
She officially created the guild.
At first, the guild started with just Hye-rin Park, but through various media outlets such as the Internet and news, numerous people interested in conquering the tower applied to join.
Additionally, Hyesung, the guild created by Soo-yeon, has grown rapidly by receiving sponsorship from various large companies.
[Isn’t there a black cow who hasn’t fully bought the comet right now?]
Buy all the Hyesung Group stocks you can now. No one can predict how much it will rise the moment it succeeds in targeting the first floor.

– I went all in with all my money. From today, my religion is Suyeongyo.
ㄴ If you don’t conquer it, your money will end up in pieces of toilet paper.
ㄴ Yeah, try not to attack it~ Just commit suicide is enough~
– Stocks are stocks too, so if we can’t attack them, aren’t we all screwed? Isn’t money the problem?
ㄴ So how much did you put in?
ㄴ It’s a full-time purchase. Please attack me right away, Suyeonnunna!! Actually, humanity has nothing to worry about!!
However, there were also negative views.
– They give me credit for conquering floor 0 once.
It’s because you didn’t watch the video of the Goblin King being cut in two.
ㄴ I wish I had that skill too haha. Otherwise, that weapon would have been S-rank.
ㄴ I just made an additional purchase after seeing that it was S grade.
“Ugh..”
I sighed out the discomfort in a corner of my mind and focused on our situation.
What I accomplished with Seolhee in the past two weeks.
deficit
It was an overwhelming deficit.
We bought all the items on the market.
We got scammed once in a while along the way, but my sister just made a list of scammers as if she had expected it.
There were plenty of items piled up in the warehouse.
It was easy to tell whether the items people sent were items or well-decorated fakes.
When you bring the system app close to an item with the system app turned on, the item name and grade will appear. Then, if the reward given by the system is correct and there is no response, you have been scammed out of tens or hundreds of dollars.
“There’s nothing we can do. Neither you nor I have any useful skills, but for now, it’s lucky if we don’t get scammed further by the scammers, let alone get real education.”
Fortunately, Seolhee’s older sister had a lot of money.
There really are too many.
“Wow.. why did you go to my sister’s company?”
“At first, it was just a hobby, and when I was about to quit, I found someone I liked.”
“Really? Have you confessed to that person?”
“Confession: I’m a guy who works all day, so I’ve never had a long conversation about anything other than work.”
“Wow.. that guy is really unlucky. It’s a pity that he lost his sister.”
“Ugh.. That was such a tactless guy. Talking about it makes me angry, so uh! Why! Be observant! There is none!”
“Ah! Why are you hitting me? Evil!”
My sister seemed angry at the man for not understanding her feelings.
‘It’s definitely pitiful. If I had married such a rich sister, the rest of my life would have been easier.’
I don’t know who it was, but I felt very pitiful.
Well, who knew that the woman with the title of assistant manager at a small business actually had 20 billion won in her bank account alone?
“But why did you tell me to buy all the items I see?”
“It’s a feeling. The feeling that now is the lowest point.”
“What if no one is interested in the tower like this?”
“The survival of mankind is at stake, and the whole world is interested. Currently, only high-grade items are expensive, but these will also become more expensive in the future. Now that I say it, it’s true, Cheonhwi, I bought all the overseas supplies too.”
“Yes!”
So for the first time, I lived a comfortable life, doing whatever I wanted without worrying about money, and not having to look after anyone.
‘Money is the best…!’
**
I quickly pick up my phone and check the remaining time.
[07:00:12:15 The first floor is open.]
[Floor 0 clear ranking]
1. Sooyeon Jeong
2.Hye-rin Park
3. Jeon Cheon-hwi
[Clear privileges will be given according to your ranking 7 days before the opening of the first floor.]
It is said that the clear privilege will be given in about 10 minutes.
“It’s a reward for being in the top 3 in Korea, so wouldn’t it be ignored?”
What reward should I give?
In a live TV program in front of them, some of the people who had participated in the attack on the 0th floor were being interviewed and waiting for their rewards.
The program, which featured special abilities and items only seen in novels or webtoons, and even an unidentified tower, was being broadcast live on YouTube. People from other countries who were unable to conquer the 0th floor of the tower were also curious about what the ‘reward’ was, and viewers of the live broadcast on YouTube The number was still rising in real time.
“200 million viewers…”
“China and Korea are the only countries in the world that have cleared floor 0 of the tower in just 10 minutes, so it deserves the attention of people all over the world.”
For reference, for this live broadcast, YouTube stopped all other YouTube videos for 3 hours and ran all servers for the Korean live broadcast, but there was lag.
Even though chatting was blocked, the number of viewers continued to increase.
Soon after, the live program host began counting down.
“10”
“9”
“8”
nervous.
“7”
“6”
“5”
What kind of compensation will be given?
“4”
“3”
Is it a special item as seen in internet communities? Or should I give you a new skill?
“2”
“1”
Weeing!
The people who participated in the live TV program and my cell phone rang at the same time.
While everyone was paying attention and watching the situation, I also turned on my phone and checked the system notifications.
[Rewards will be given to everyone who participated in the 0th floor raid.]
[3rd place reward has arrived.]
I tried pressing that button.
Weeing!
[Congratulations! Skill: Chivalry is strengthened!]
[Skill: Chivalry (Designated Character 1: Jeong Soo-yeon (New!) Designated Character 2: (Vacancy) / Once designated, the person cannot be changed.)]
How to use: You can use it by saying the skill name and the designated person at the same time.
Whenever and wherever you use a skill, you will move near the person in question.
(New!)Effect: A correction effect is added to all actions for the character assigned to Chivalry.
At the same time, a pure white light covered me.
After a while.
“..?”
“Why what? What did you get?”
I lifted my right hand and squeezed it and opened it repeatedly.
‘strength..’
Suddenly, I try turning my shoulders a few times.
‘surely..’
My shoulders, which had been tense from working all day, felt so light now.
My body, which had lost all of its muscles due to not exercising anymore due to work, began to gain strength.
“How..?”
It wasn’t just me.
Some of the participants in the live TV program also lost wrinkles, and the muscles of a muscular man who used to wear sleeveless clothes became noticeably bigger.
Everyone felt healthier and stronger.
Seolhee, who was alternately watching the live TV broadcast and me, put her hand on my forearm and started touching it.
“Simple..Simple. Ah.”
My older sister’s hand, which had been touching my arm as if possessed, also began caressing my chest and abdomen.
“Wow.. You definitely didn’t have muscles like this just a week ago, right?”
“..? How does your sister know that?”
“Ah. Ahahaha! If I had known this would happen, I would have entered the top too! It’s unfair!!”
At the same time, entire communities in South Korea began to burn.
[Wow, I should have entered the top too]
Have you seen how everyone is getting younger? Isn’t this synthetic?
=[Comment]=
-I entered the 0th floor and did nothing but hit the bus, but my arms started to grow muscles.
you ?? really?
ㄴ I can gain weight again as much as I want!
[My friend caught three goblins]
There’s a friend of mine who said he went to floor 0 and caught 3 goblins. I got goosebumps seeing them gather at his house and receive rewards in real time.
He obviously had very poor eyesight, but he suddenly said he felt dizzy, took off his glasses, and his eyesight came back. Wow!
It’s not like 1.0, but if you look at it roughly, it’s around 0.5 or 0.6. Does this make sense since I had negative vision to begin with?
Not only because of the glasses, but he was a skinny guy, he became a little thicker and his pale complexion also improved.
=[Comment]=
– Ah, sss I sold the item 3 days ago and ate chicken with the money, but I won’t sell it.
ㄴ Try calling again. Hey, I’m also calling the buyer at the time.
ㄴ Share your contact information with me, so I deleted it;
Soon after, Seolhee’s and my cellphones started ringing with numbers we didn’t recognize.
Seolhee looked at me and said with a grin.
“We are rich now.”
**
“Stop touching your sister and put your hands… Ugh! Don’t go down! Those aren’t muscles!”
“I thought it was muscle because it was so hard~.”
“What kind of man touches me like that…”
“It’s a mistake. A mistake.”
There was also a small incident.
