I started the project to raise 90 billion.

[Edit] Raising levels to copy is the easiest and fastest way, but I don’t know when it will be possible.

Besides, since I had to raise my level anyway, it would be nice to make money while exploring the labyrinth.

There are many ways for psychics to make money.

Getting a job at a company and making money with your abilities.

Becoming famous and making money through advertisements or broadcasts.

Hunting monsters in the labyrinth and selling the loot.

Other illegal methods.

So far, I have been making a living as a freelancer [Edit], but I recently realized that it’s not enough.

My arm still hurt from being bitten by a hunter rat while hunting monsters in the labyrinth.

I’m still traumatized by a mere rat, how am I supposed to catch stronger monsters?

“Isn’t there an easy way to catch monsters?”

Sighing, I browsed the internet when an interesting title caught my attention.

“Taming… Scroll?”

Scroll.

A type of magical tool that, when torn, allows ordinary people to use magic.

[Are you afraid to hunt alone?]

[Do you find it hard to trust party members?]

[Use the magic scroll at such times!]

[Recommended for tanks lacking long-range attacks: Magic Missile Scroll!]

[Recommended for ADCs afraid of close-range combat: Confusion Scroll!]

[Recommended for psychics who want to enhance their physical abilities before battle: Enhancement Scroll!]

[With Scroll Company, your labyrinth exploration will be even more convenient!]

After skimming through the website introduction, I read the description of the [Taming Scroll] that caught my interest.

“Taming an F-grade monster for an hour?”

Taming… Taming…

“With this, I don’t have to fight directly!”

After causing confusion to the monster with [Edit] and taming it, safe hunting is possible.

“But it’s too expensive to buy right now.”

[F-grade Taming Scroll]

Price: 1 million won

Note: Refunds due to user whims are not possible, please familiarize yourself with the instructions and use it on suitable monsters.

Hunter Let’s teeth cost 20,000 won, but 1 million won?

A hunting method that costs more than the reward.

“But the idea isn’t bad… Wait?”

[Edit]’s main ability is [Copy].

What if I copy a monster like I copied Bae Jisoo and Arang’s buttocks?

I remembered almost breaking my head trying to copy Bae Jisoo’s entire body, but my editing level has increased since then.

And I’m not trying to copy a human, but a rat.

“It can’t hurt to experiment.”

Nodding to myself, I quickly copied a low-grade healing potion from the [Potionix] company website and went to the Achievement Park.

“Buying giant rabbit feet! 3 for each!”

“Buying Hunter Let’s teeth and claws in bulk!”

“Rescue needed for poisoned squirrel pouch!”

“Potions for sale! Cheap!”

“Need weapon sharpening!”

“It’s always crowded here.”

As I passed by the bustling crowd towards the gate, a man called out to me.

When I nodded, a man with a long bow and a rough appearance stood in front of me.

“Going in alone?”

“Yes. Just planning to take a look around.”

I only intended to satisfy my curiosity at the entrance, but the man in front of me seemed to interpret my answer slightly differently.

“Oh~ A newbie psychic like you going in alone might get hurt, you know?”

A sly tone.

A scrutinizing expression.

“These must be the guys Chan-sae mentioned.”

Trash who sweet-talk beginners into joining their party and then use them as pack mules or discard them in emergencies.

If I were a novice who bravely ventured into the labyrinth as a truly awakened superhuman.

“If I were to speak for myself, I am a seasoned assistant who has been exploring the Dalseong Park Labyrinth for two years~!”

“Of all times, why did our Geundil have to have an emergency and punk out? There’s one spot left in the party, want to come with me?”

He must have been taken aback by the confident man’s teasing.

However.

“It’s okay. I’m just going to take a look around and leave.”

It didn’t resonate with me, having received strict mental training as a C-rank superhuman from Chansa.

“That’s a good answer~ Of course, that’s… what?”

“I’ll go in alone.”

…”

As I firmly stated, the man’s face turned slightly red.

“Tsk. Seonghoon got played.”

“Ugh, you told me to use honorifics.”

“You bastards! Can’t you shut up?!”

The archer who seemed to be a party member sharply rebuked me.

“You. Be careful inside the labyrinth.”

I simply politely declined, but I received an inexplicable declaration of hostility.

Feeling uneasy in the strange atmosphere, I remembered the reason I came here while enjoying nature.

In the distance, I saw the grass swaying slightly.

Quickly drawing my dagger, I lowered my body.

As I approached slowly, I saw a large white creature.

‘Is that a giant rabbit?’

Like Hunter Let, it was a rabbit the size of a large dog.

With its fluffy body and cute face, it was a popular monster among female superhumans.

‘If that foot hits me, it’s gonna hurt like hell…’

The impressive size of the foot, which seemed to be about 600, was impressive.

The creature hadn’t noticed me yet.

I plucked a tuft of grass that it was nibbling on.

‘Copy!! Paste!!’

As I used my ability, a completely identical giant rabbit appeared right in front of me.

Not expecting it to come so close, I hastily stepped back.

– Grrrr!!

The giant rabbit was a nimble monster.

It jumped towards me with quick movements.

“Darn it!!”

It was too close to dodge and too fast to avoid.

To minimize the impact, I crossed my arms and tightly closed my eyes.

“… Huh?”

The anticipated pain was not felt.

On the contrary.

– Grrrr~

The copied giant rabbit seemed to recognize me as its owner and was nuzzling my leg with its soft fur.

“… Alright, alright.”

Awkwardly smiling, I petted its head, and it nuzzled me even more.

“Adorable.”

It wasn’t necessary to release it immediately like a badge, but a faint headache was felt.

‘If my level rises more, I could have fun as a tamer.’

And if I could even copy humans…?

A smile formed at the positive possibility, but it disappeared as soon as I saw another giant rabbit rushing towards me.

Pointing at the enemy, I shouted, “Rabbit! Stop that kid!”

But.

– Grrrr?

My giant rabbit just looked dumbfounded and tilted its head.

“Darn it!! It’s because you’re a wild tamer that we can’t communicate!”

I thought my rabbit would help me against the enemy, but I missed the timing to strike back.

Anticipating more pain, I crossed my arms in front of my body.

Unlike just a moment ago when it was a [Hopeful Chapter].

Thud!!

The giant rabbit’s powerful kick hit my arm directly.

“Ouch!! That hurts like hell!!”

The pain was so intense that I couldn’t help but groan, wondering if it had hit my bone.

The wild rabbit that kicked my arm used it as a springboard to jump high and back away.

“You little punk. You’re done for.”

Just as I was about to use [Editing] to mosaic in front of his eyes.

– Kyuuung!!!

The rabbit, who had been acting cute towards me, suddenly shouted and ran away.

“Rabbit?!”

He ran towards the wild rabbit and kicked it.

– Kyuuung?!

The wild rabbit, just as surprised as I was, backed away with a cry.

Meanwhile, my rabbit continued to attack the wild rabbit without stopping.

“No way… am I being attacked?”

Thinking of me as his owner due to the copy.

Although he didn’t understand the command, seeing his owner being attacked, he got angry and started attacking the other rabbit.

The fleeing wild rabbit also seemed to perceive my rabbit as an enemy and started to fight back.

The kicks of the two giant rabbits clashed in the air.

Whether it was the original or the copy, their physical abilities and habits were completely the same, so no matter how hard they fought, there was no clear winner.

“I’ll help you, rabbit!!”

I tried to provide long-range support with [Editing], but…

“Which one is my rabbit…?”

They look the same, so I can’t tell who’s the enemy and who’s the ally.

Just before the kicks of the two rabbits clashed in the air again.

“I don’t care! Just defeat anyone!!”

I used [Cutting] on the left rabbit’s leg and moved it to a strange place.

The attack of the right rabbit hit the left rabbit’s body directly.

– Kyuuuuk!

It was just one blow, but in the end, it was an F-rank monster.

The rabbit that was hit by the attack as if it were fatal rolled on the ground.

“Now’s the time!! Finish it quickly!!”

After using [Editing] in addition to already copying the rabbit, I started to feel a throbbing headache that was becoming unbearable.

As if waiting for my command, the right rabbit sent another blow and took the life of the fallen rabbit.

“Great!! Rabbit, you did well… huh?”

I was about to praise the rabbit with a smile for the perfect teamwork, but suddenly the headache disappeared.

The disappearance of the headache meant that the overload was over.

The end of the overload meant that the ability was gone.

Which means.

– Kyuuung!!

“You were the wild rabbit!!”

I failed miserably and ended up killing my ally rabbit.
