chapter 11
Taejeong, who received a new skill and equipment, started checking the equipment first.

[Pull the trigger after fixing the safety bar retraction.]
“Comply with the destructive power… What is the injection range?”
While muttering to himself, he took out equipment from his inventory.
Then, a weight that was different from the previous weapons was transmitted.
“Uh. This… It’s really heavy. Are you catching it like this?”
After several attempts, when he found the most comfortable position, he fixed the safety bar and pulled his right index finger.
At the same time, terrifying flames swept across the front and spread out.
Whoaaa!
“Wow!”
Tae-jeong was startled when the huge flames erupted in an instant and hurriedly released her hand holding the trigger.
I was expecting the fire to go out, but the range was very wide.
“Are you crazy?”
It took a while to calm my shocked heart.
Once again he pulled the trigger.
Then, red flames spread endlessly, covering half of the field of view.
It was Taejeong, who made my heart feel magnificent just by looking at how splendid he was.
“Awesome, this is really great.”
He was so excited that he was talking to himself, but after barely calming down, he checked his skills this time.

“What kind of destructive power… … .”
With destructive power that was on a different level from existing weapons, he immediately activated the skill.
Then, a translucent message window popped up.
[Select the area to wear.]
[Right/Left] [Location: Arm]
“Since I have to use the Vulcan on my right arm, should I put it on my left arm?”
As he thought, he touched his left side.
Then, something like a hologram was formed, and soon it became colored and something began to wrap Tae-jeong’s arm.
The appearance of the weapon completed in such an instant was completely different from the ones he had seen so far.
“It looks like a pipe… How do you write this?”
Taejeong activated the grenade launcher by using Vulcan.
At the same time, a notification sound was heard.
[Triggers only at 45 degrees or higher.]
“45 degrees. Can I hold it up and shoot it like this?”
Taejeong raised her arm and made a rough angle.
Then hook! Something popped out of the pipe with a pop.
It flew quite far in a parabolic arc, and soon disappeared from sight, making a loud explosion.
bang!
“Five.”
I couldn’t tell what had happened, but judging from the smoke rising, it looked like something had exploded.
As I got closer, I saw that the surrounding grasses had turned to ash and died, along with black traces.
Roughly speaking, a 10-meter radius has become a scorched earth.
“As long as I can hit the right place, this will be fine. It has good range and is perfect for sheep hunting.”
Taejeong wanted to use it a few more times to get a feel for it, but she thought it was not the time today.
It was because mana was too precious to use here.
After testing, he started moving again.
how long did it take
Again, a troll appeared in front of him.
Seeing that, Tae-jung took out the flamethrower without delay.
At the same time, terrifying flames erupted from his emitter.
Whoaaa!
Queueek!
The troll, whose body was dyed in flames, let out a scream and jumped up and down.
It was so painful that he couldn’t even recognize the person right in front of him.
The troll, who had been rampaging like that, immediately sat down and slammed its black head to the ground.
[You have killed the troll.]
[Acquire 1,200 EXP.]
“scent. It kills me.”
Tae-jung, who had roasted a troll, felt like her heart was being ripped open.
The guy I barely managed to catch even after spending two barrels of mana a while ago.
I couldn’t help but feel good because I burned and killed such a monster in just a few seconds.
The subsequent hunt went very smoothly.
Trappers with guns, trolls with flamethrowers.
Even for those who occasionally appeared in groups, the flamethrower showed outstanding power.
Taejeong, who continued hunting without realizing how much time had passed, was already at the halfway point of the mountain range.
“Let’s get some rest.”
Satisfied with the gimbap and bottled water he bought in the morning, he checked the harvest he had obtained so far.
[Orc Claw×48]
[Goblin Ear×201]
[Orc Hide×17]
[Troll’s Heart×1]
It was an incomparable quantity compared to yesterday.
If you sold all of them, there would be more than 4,000 left.
Moreover, there were still many potions left to use.
“I don’t even have horns today, is it already this much?”
Tae-jeong still felt like a dream that had happened to her.
Rеаd at ոоbӏеmtӏ.соm
Just a month ago, he was a porter, and just a week ago, people said he was happy that he was earning 10 million won a day by dismantling wolf hides.
However, a few days passed and now he was earning several times that money.
“At this rate, it won’t be a matter of becoming really rich.”
He had been hit by money since childhood.
Alone with my brother without parents.
He focused only on making a living in an impoverished environment.
Of course, neither the dream nor the future were allowed to Tae-jung.
This is because he had a younger brother to take care of instead of his parents.
But now things have changed.
You don’t have to worry about money anymore.
He was able to take care of both his brother’s support and his own future.
By becoming a hunter, a completely new path of life was opened.
‘I’m going to go see So-young once today is over.’
The hunt continued until the potion ran out.
Thanks to this, he was able to come out only when the evening was over.
After coming down the mountain trail and getting into the car, Tae-jeong made a phone call to someone on her cell phone.
-brother?
“uh. It’s me. what are you doing?”
-me? is it home?
“okay? Shall we see your face after a long time?”
-Are you coming today?
“uh. why? Who is it?”
– No, there is someone. Are you going to eat rice?
“Look. one… It will take more than an hour.”
-yea, I got it. come carefully.
After hanging up the phone, Taejeong headed to the market.
[83 million won has been deposited.]
“scent. I ate a lot too.”
Tae-jung, who entered the market with a confident step, headed to the potion shop.
“Please give me 50 Intermediate Potions. It’s a lump sum.”
“Here you are, sir.”
Even though he bought tens of millions of won worth of potions, he was still an unresponsive employee.
If you spend this much elsewhere, you will become a VIP customer right away.
Certainly, in the world of hunters, it seemed that a few thousand was nothing more than a pittance.
After taking all the potions, he drove to Uijeongbu, where his younger brother So-yeong was.
Yoo So-young. He was his only family member and younger brother.
It’s already been a year since she forced her to become independent and sent her to college, who said she would work to help with the housekeeping.
I thought, ‘Am I being greedy for nothing’, but seeing her bright smile at the entrance ceremony, I thought it was a good choice.
So the backing wasn’t hard at all.
It was because I wanted to give my brother a better life.
‘Let’s see. When to park… … .’
Arriving at So-young’s studio, Tae-jeong parked her car on the side of the parking lot and pressed the call button at the entrance.
“yes. who are you?”
“me.”
“oh. Wait a minute.”
After a while.
The front door opened and a woman in shorts pulled out slippers.
“brother.”
“What are you coming down for? I’m going up anyway.”
“It’s nice to see you.”
“Didn’t I see you last month?”
“Is this the first time I saw you in the spring?”
“Anyway.”
“Brother, didn’t you eat? You can look forward to it today, I showed off my skills a little because my brother is coming.”
“What? Ramen?”
“tooth. Do you think I’m still Anne? Let’s go in quickly.”
Taejeong, who entered the house with her, washed her hands and sat down in front of the table.
Then, one by one, bowls of side dishes were formed, and after the last stew, she sat across from him and looked at Taejeong.
“Eat it, brother. I did everything.”
“hey… what day is it today what’s so much Aren’t you eating?”
“You said you ate earlier. eat it now yes?”
Taejeong picked up a spoon and started eating.
The taste was surprisingly above average.
Now, I can say that I can feel the taste of my mother’s hand, which I can’t even remember.
“hey. delicious. I’m not going to lie, it tastes better than a restaurant.”
“As expected, my brother and I have the same taste. I knew you would like it.”
“Then where will the blood go?”
After such a friendly meal time, I looked around the living room, leaving her behind as she offered to make me a coffee.
Then, as if he had found something, Taejeong’s hand went to the corner of the drawer.
“hey. Soyoung, what is this? Isn’t this a shopping bag?”
“uh? yes. It’s just nothing.”
“But why are there hundreds of them? Aren’t you doing this part-time job?”
At Tae-jung’s words, So-yeong put down the coffee and said.
“I’m just doing it for a while when I’m not studying.”
When So-yeong came out, Tae-jung put down the wad of paper and asked.
“Has your cost of living fallen?”
“no? Are you still there?”
“But what kind of part-time job do you have to study? I told you to tell me if you run out of money.”
In response to his sincere words, she opened up what was inside as if it had nothing to do with it.
“I’m sorry. I am also an adult now, but until when will I live receiving my brother’s allowance? Our situation isn’t that good, and my brother is going to be 30 soon, so I’m going to meet a good person and get married. They say you can’t even get married without money these days.”
At her answer, Tae-jung was at a loss for words.
Because it wasn’t something a kid could think of.
when did it get so big?
An awkward air flow passed for a while.
Should I nag and say not to mess around?
Or should I say that they are all grown up and that they are admirable?
Taejeong, who was worried, broke the silence and opened her mouth.
“Soyoung.”
“yes?”
“What did your brother say when your father died?”
“Well… parents?”
“okay. I don’t know if I’m lacking, but my father did that to me. Since you are now the head of the household, take good care of your little brother and be the shadow of your parents.”
“Your brother was also young then.”
“I was bigger than you.”
“Brother, you couldn’t do anything because of me. In order to buy me another outfit, I couldn’t even buy a uniform for three years and wore it. Is that all? You didn’t study well because you had a part-time job.”
“hey. Back in the day, I used to wear all of them and wear them back. That was the fad, while a fool didn’t even know. And even if I studied, it’s not my study head, it won’t be much different from now anyway.”
“I’m not stupid, brother.”
“know. But Soyoung.”
“yes?”
“I never once thought that my life was difficult because of you. Rather, it was because of you that I was able to come this far without falling into the wrong path. So you can still rely on it a bit more. Is an older brother just an older brother? I’m getting old anyway, so I can’t even do this if I go through it later. So, use it as much as you like when you have a little bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of And now, in fact, there is nothing to worry about. … .”
Tae-jung, who was about to talk about awakening momentarily, hesitated and blurted out his words.
I didn’t say anything, hiding that I was worried about the porter job, but it was obvious that I would worry more if I said that I was hunting myself.
“Why don’t you talk?”
“ah. It’s nothing else, this time I was scouted by a large company and my salary went up a lot. So I don’t have to worry about money anymore.”
“really? Where?”
“I have. Hunter-related places.”
“Ah, the place you said you wanted to go to then? Wow. congratulations brother that is great.”
“okay. Anyway, it’s too late. I have to go. this is pocket money Don’t come out.”
Throwing a million won envelope that had been brought to her earlier, Tae-jung hurriedly left the house.
Soyoung’s urgent voice came from behind him.
“Brother, you have too much money!”
