episode_0004

While playing around with [Edit], I discovered a shocking fact.

If you set the transparency to 0 and then use [Edit] on another object, you cannot revert the object that has become transparent.

The black photo that was printed for the experiment.

I set the transparency to 0, left it on the desk, and suddenly thought of restoring it to its original state.

[Edit] LV.2

You can edit what you see.

I couldn’t use [Edit] because it wasn’t visible.

“It should be here…”

I could feel its existence in this world, and the unique texture of the paper, but it didn’t matter.

The undo function couldn’t be used infinitely.

In other words,

“Only one at a time.”

If I had made myself transparent without conducting such an experiment and played around by undressing a woman’s clothes…

I almost lived as an invisible person for the rest of my life.

To prevent such a mishap, I searched for various methods like [Save] or [Layer], but to no avail.

Perhaps it was due to the low level of [Edit].

Or maybe it didn’t provide that function.

There was no loophole.

“But still. Just be careful, right?”

As I began to understand the true usage of my ability, greed crept in.

“Could I go to the Labyrinth too?”

Not suitable for combat like the proximity system or material system. Not capable of lightly landing from a 10-story apartment or possessing tremendous strength.

“It doesn’t matter if I have a potion, right?”

The Labyrinth that appeared with the superhumans.

In the Labyrinth, various creatures that do not exist in the modern world exist.

By using herbs and plants collected from there, and drinking potions made by alchemists from the [Production System], abilities can be permanently or temporarily enhanced.

I watched a video on NewTube titled [The One-of-a-Kind Potion in This World! What’s the Price?!].

The video, which lasted for 20 minutes, was the worst video that only rambled on with useless talk, but it ended splendidly.

“Waited for a long time!! This is the treasure found in the S-grade Labyrinth!!”

“The legendary potion that enhances superpowers just by drinking it!!”

“Oh~ I’d like to drink it myself, but my guild members won’t forgive me, right~?”

“So, I want to auction it globally!”

“The auction will start as soon as this video is uploaded! It will run for 24 hours, and the highest bidder will get it!”

Since the video was quite old, the auction had already ended, and a wealthy man in the United States bought it for an outrageous amount of 70 billion dollars, over 90 trillion won, and drank it right away.

Although the legendary potion no longer exists in this world.

“It remains in the video~”

I copied the potion from the video.

Now, all I had to do was drink the [Copy]!

With a happy smile on my face, I used [Copy].

The moment I held the potion identical to the one in the video in my hand.

“Aaaahhh!!”

Just like when I copied Bae Jisoo. No, a severe headache dominated my head.

It felt like a fiery earthquake spear piercing my brain.

Liquid oozed from my eyes, nose, and mouth.

Was it my survival instinct kicking in? Or did my ability not withstand and cancel out?

After the potion disappeared, the hellish pain slowly subsided.

“Ugh… Ugh… Damn…”

Even though the overload seemed to have disappeared, the pain was still lingering.

“Can’t… I still not drink the legendary potion… Damn it.”

Unable to muster the strength to go to bed, I lay down on the floor and slowly recovered.

It was a pain I never wanted to experience again.

[Edit] LV.3

You can edit what you see.

“… Should I self-harm?”

My mind wavered with the heightened superpower.

The fear of pain outweighed the sweetness of leveling up, so I gave up on self-harm leveling up.

Instead, I picked up my phone and made a call somewhere.

Turuuru. Turuuru.

With a short dial tone, the other person answered.

[Yo, Yadongjeong. What’s up? You called first. Do you have something to ask?]

“Take me to the Labyrinth.”

[Can’t go because of life matters. Why all of a sudden?]

“Just felt like going at least once.”

[Hmm? Well, okay. But what did you say your ability was?]

“Separation.”

“Separation? What’s that?”

“Let’s meet first. Are you free?”

“Yeah. Should I come to your place now?”

“Bring Eunmi Chicken on your way here.”

“You crazy.”

Not long after, the doorbell rang.

“You know the password!! Come in!!”

“You said to bring chicken!!”

“You idiot! You should’ve brought beer too!!”

“Oh, right.”

I quickly got up from the bed and opened the door to find a little guy standing in front of it, a face smaller than mine.

“Hey, Chamsae.”

“Hey, Yadongjeong. Move aside, bird.”

With a slight push, the guy with strong muscles entered my house.

As if it were his own place, he took out a box and placed the chicken on top of it.

“Nothing’s changed here.”

“Did you change the monitor?”

“Oh~ Are you going to watch adult videos on a bigger screen now? Will you see every detail?”

“I already see everything in uncensored mode. If I zoom in, I can even see the wrinkles on the genitals~ Oh, isn’t that it? Matsumoto Momoko has a mole between her vagina and buttocks?”

“Really? Can you share it?”

“If it leaks, we could get sued, right?”

“Kabi.”

The guy sitting across from me, tearing into the chicken, is Kim Chansae.

He’s a friend from college and we served in the military together.

With a gulp of beer, he chuckled.

“Hehe~ So, why the sudden interest in the Labyrinth?”

“I told you. I felt like going at least once.”

“Aren’t you underestimating the Labyrinth? You could die in there.”

“If the bird known as the Wind of the Bronze League is with me, isn’t that enough~”

“You’re in the Silver League now? I told you I got promoted to C grade two months ago.”

“Did you?”

Being in the C grade may seem insignificant and weak, but there are still D, E, and the bottom F grades below it.

At least it’s considered average on a global scale.

And due to his small stature of 163, he often tricks opponents into underestimating him.

Anyway.

“You’ve never been inside the Labyrinth before, right?”

“Yeah. I registered a few days ago.”

“Damn. You went through Awakening with me. Didn’t you pay the fine?”

“I did… 1 million won in 6 installments.”

“Idiot. You should’ve done it with me.”

“I’m regretting it too.”

Thinking about the wasted 1 million won, I took a sip of beer.

“So, what’s your ability? Separation?”

“Separation, you idiot.”

“Whatever. What’s the effect?”

In response to my friend’s question, I smiled as if I had been waiting and got up from my seat.

“Come, come~ This opportunity doesn’t come every day~ Look here!”

Chansae chuckled and looked at my hand.

It was a simple magic trick I used to do in elementary school.

Bending my left thumb and touching the knuckle of my right thumb.

“Separation magic~”

The guy seemed impressed by my perfect magic.

“You crazy bastard…”

He spat out a curse.

“It’s just a joke.”

I showed him my palm, using [Cutting], and cut both wrists, making his eyes widen.

Wouldn’t Bugi Captain from the popular Japanese animation One Piece look like this?

“What?!”

“Separation magic~”

“Stop messing around!! What is this?!”

Chansae stood up abruptly and touched the space between my hand and wrist.

With a hand that seemed to pass through the air, he poked my hand.

“Really… it’s separated…?”

“It’s separation magic, remember?”

“It must be a superpower, you idiot. Anyway…”

Chansae furrowed his brow and stroked his chin.

“Where are we going to use this?”

“That’s the problem.”

“The separation distance?”

“Up to 50 centimeters.”

“The quantity?”

“Up to 2.”

“The duration?”

“10 seconds? 1 minute? It’s different every time, so I don’t know.”

“Can I do it on my arm too?”

“Possible.”

“Let’s try it.”

“Whoa!”

“Wow~”

I felt sorry for lying to my friend, but I had to tell him the prepared content because I couldn’t reveal the truth.

And.

“This is garbage.”

“Agreed.”

I received a declaration of garbage from my friend, who was a somewhat successful superpower user.

“Still, if we separate the monster’s eyes to confuse the perspective, we can provide support.”

“If we separate the weapon that’s coming at us, it could also be a defense.”

“If we time it right, we can separate our bodies before getting attacked and avoid it.”

“I hadn’t thought that far.”

Is he a current superpower user who has wandered through other labyrinths?

Despite showing such a trashy appearance, he found usefulness within it.

“No more explanations! So when can we go to the labyrinth?”

“Since it’s your first time, you have to enter the F-grade.”

Chan-sae rummaged through the phone he had overturned for a moment, then grinned.

“Tomorrow at 8 a.m. at Dalseong Park, okay?”

“Absolutely.”

Dalseong Park Labyrinth

If in the past, there were many customers using the park.

“From low-grade potions to intermediate potions~ Potions for sale~”

“Weapons sharpened here!”

“Buying monster products. We offer 5% more than the official purchase price.”

Now, superpower users looking to use the labyrinth come from all over.

As we passed through the crowd, a huge tower and entrance that were not there before greeted us.

“Looking for a tank to go in together!”

“ADC and MID waiting! Just need a tank!”

If there were many merchants near the park, there were many superpower users waiting to enter at the entrance.

“Are tanks in high demand?”

“Who wants to be stabbed and slashed with a sword? It hurts and potions are not cheap.”

“I see.”

Nodding at Chan-sae’s words, I touched the small glass bottle I had put in my hip bag.

“As long as I have this, I can be at ease.”

The glass bottle in my hand is a low-grade healing potion from the leading potion company in the United States, Potionix.

I copied it from the company introduction video.

There were various potions such as mana recovery potions, antidotes, poisons, etc., but my abilities were lacking.

After placing the potion down, I grabbed the handle of the dagger hanging from my waist.

The basic weapon that can be obtained for free for a limited time when registering as a superpower user.

After eating chicken with Chan-sae yesterday, I went to a nearby branch to get it.

Just like with potions, I wanted to copy weapons from a large weapon company, but my abilities were lacking.

“I’ll copy everything later…”

I don’t know when it will happen, but as I dream of a bright future, Chan-sae casually finished his affiliation.

I also stood in front of the entrance after my registration card was scanned at the entrance reader.

“Then let’s go in. Follow me closely.”

“Okay.”
