A Monster Hunter Born of Capitalism

“Other soldiers say they usually flip their eyes if they give them a vacation.... ”

“That's them, and I'm me. ”

“I don't think I'm being a jerk, but I think I've changed my personality... Is it the effect of a memory implant procedure? ”

But Jerome thought he had to adapt because he was better than before.

“Is there anything you want to ask me? You lost your memory. You don't have any questions? ”

“Losing your memory doesn't mean you die. I've had a memory infusion, so we can adapt slowly. ”

“But there must be one question. Don't you ever wonder what your friend is up to? ”

“Are you the chairman of something big? ”

He was joking, but Jerome's attitude was confident.

“I'm still moving, but will I be president in the future? ”

Jerome blinded himself by saying so. Upon raising the blinds, the outside landscape showed the signs of Jerome's enormous face.

“Are you a movie star? ”

“I said move.”

Jerome gave his business card to Yooseong. The business cards in this world were not paper cards, but hologram cards. Jerome's hologram pops up from his little card and starts introducing himself.

“Hello, I'm Jerome Gracia, director of the Olympus Group. Our Olympus group is the best in the universe... ”

Olympus Group? I think I've heard that name somewhere.... ’

Yooseong tilted his head. It was a name I've heard a lot about.

“Our group, Olympus, has probably heard of it because it supplies a lot of equipment to the Alliance. ”

That reminds me. The old Combat Armor must have been made by Olympus. Eve also explained that Jakal is a weapon made by Olympus.

“This body is the grandson of Olympus Group Chairman. ”

Jerome boasted to Yooseong in horror. Jerome was more than just a handful of antimatter.

‘A handsome guy with an antimatter handout...' The world isn't fair. ’

He once again realized that this world was a careless and unfair place.

“How did a rich girl like you become friends with me? ”

“Some of your houses are reputable military families, but you know a lot about them since you were a kid. And maybe it's because I have a big enough heart to accept your dirty personality? ”

Seeing Jerome joking around, it was clear that he was a friend.

“Hey, Jerome. ”

“Why.”

“The Olympus Group is a big company. So there's some kind of lab under the mountains? ”

“Well, of course I do. I'm not proud of it, but it'll fit within five fingers of space. ”

“Do me a favor. ”

“Please? For what? ”

Yooseong put his hand in the patient's pocket and opened the inventory. Then he took out a stable stone and handed it to Jerome.

“A jewel? Nice color. Blue diamond or aquamarine? ”

“Neither. ”

“Then what is it? Where did you get this? ”

“I found it. ”

“Pick it up? ”

“Don't ask me where I got it. Can you study this gem for me? ”

“I can do research for you. But what kind of research? ”

“We can use this stone as an alternative energy source. So study it. ”

“What? This little gem is an energy source? What are you talking about? Are you still in your right mind? ”

Jerome treated the words of Yooseong nonsense. Yooseong was frustrated. On the Earth of the Old World, he was developing and using various products using stable stones. Since the stable stone is so expensive and hard to process, it is not very practical, but in large facilities like power plants, they use the stable stone as an energy source to turn the generator around.

On the Earth of the Old World, the paleolithic was an accredited new substance and a great source of alternative energy.

“Don't you trust me? ”

“He's a friend, of course I trust him. But if a few days ago, a kid who lost all his memory and was lying in a hospital bed like this, took a jewel out of his pocket and said it could be used as an energy source, who would believe that? He thinks he's a little off his game. ”

“But you have to trust me and study it. ”

“Okay, okay. I'll get the staff to look into it. Stop pushing your face. ”

Jerome pushes his face as he approaches. It's a friend's face, but I feel burdened if I push it this close. Moreover, I am even more burdened by the face of a black man who is not a pretty woman.

“I've got work to do. I've got to go. ”

“Buy something to eat or go. You have a lot of money. ”

“You've gotten really weird. ”

“I'm hungry. ”

“Die eating. ”

Jerome gave her plenty of food and left.

“Hey, Eve. This place isn't Korea, but it's a delivery food. Is this a technological breakthrough? ”

[…… please don't combine delivery food with New World technology.]

* * *

Yooseong was in hospital bed for three days. I spent time eating a delicious hospital and watching TV. The New World also had a lot of interesting professionals, so Yooseong decided to enjoy the rest while watching TV.

I know I came to the New World to find a new weapon and become stronger, but I didn't have to think so rashly. I've already thrown the Paste Bait to Jerome. Jerome will come to himself soon with a bite of bread. Then, we can continue the conversation slowly by throwing new pastry rice.

Tyring! Tyring!

The portable handset rang loudly. This handset, fundamentally paid by the Allied Forces, has many functions, not to mention being able to use it as a mobile phone.

Jerome called when he told me he was coming.

Beep!

When he touched the button, Jerome's face appeared on the screen of the handset.

Where the hell did you get this? This is crazy! This is crazy!

Jerome's voice was loud as if he had seen a ghost. Above the screen, researchers dressed in white robes are busy moving.

“I did, didn't I? Trust me and study it. ”

I didn't believe it at first. I just thought you were full of shit. So I gave it to the lab roughly. And the researchers showed me unbelievable research. Do you see this?

Jerome showed me a holographic map and a graph.

“I don't even know what it is. I need an explanation. ”

The map you see on the left is the extent to which this gem you gave me can power it. And what you see on the right is the amount of energy that gem has.

“So?”

You can't even see this right now? This is amazing! How much energy does a gem like this have? It's nothing compared to Tesla's energy core or nuclear reactor! You know, anti-matter cores are very unstable, right? This is dangerous stuff that can destroy a ship and blow up a city if you make a mistake, whereas it's incredibly stable! There's no risk of explosion!

“Is it that great? ”

As far as Yooseong knows, it was a great source of energy, but it was not a product that had so much energy that it was such an uproar. However, the amount of energy Jerome talked about was much greater than what he knew.

[It is speculated that Old World technology did not draw enough energy from the stable. Unlike the Old World in the New World, you've raised the horsepower by up to 100 percent. My guess is that unlike the Old World, we can use the energy of the stable people efficiently.]

“I see.”

While watching the horse-drawn horse-drawn car or airplane on TV, I also admired the horse-drawn horse-drawn horse-drawn energy, but it was a bit of a shock that it wasn't 100% efficient.

So, how many more of these can you give me? I think we can harness multiple pieces at once to greatly amplify your energy.

“Amplifiable? ”

Yeah, but it's tough in our lab, and it could be a research facility at the sink research foundation.

“What's a sink? ”

There's a whole foundation of scientists who are so smart they don't want to show up because they're so freaks. They're all research freaks. They're always studying and developing new things. Sometimes it seems like we only collect people with certain illnesses. But if you pay me, I sometimes make amazing things, and my company sponsors the foundation on a regular basis. So I have some connections.

“Then let's go together. ”

You're a patient.

“I'm fine, so come with me. ”

Okay, well, I'll be in touch. Put the discharge order on the table. I'm coming to get you.

Jerome hangs up.

Yooseong felt like something was happening gradually. Now that people are crazy about research, all they have to do is meet with researchers at the sink research foundation, show them the stable and various items, and develop new weapons.

“Yves, if a gun could pierce a monster's mana, the world would flip, right?" ”

[Hunters of the Old World have always used weapons such as cold weapons and bows to fight monsters, so if there are firearms through monsters, there will be a lot of controversy. Perhaps governments around the world will contact users to uncover the secrets of weapons.]

“It's hard to get, but I can't give it to you easily. ”

[Are you willing to give it to me?]

“As needed? ”

[What if I have to?]

“Every time I watch TV, I get mad at Hunters for being so close to the police. You look ridiculous when you say you have some strength. The Hunters won't come to their senses if they get beat up. ”

[You're a hunter, too, but you seem to have some bad feelings about Hunters.]

“If you live as a helpless socialite, you see many things. And even if you give me a weapon, I'll give you a miniature version of it, so don't worry about it. I have to protect my food line. ”

You'll have a new weapon soon enough. The heart of Yooseong began to bat rapidly. I laughed as I imagined sweeping away the shamans by myself.

‘Please...... I'll make you regret touching me. ’

Yooseong turned on the television, pleading vengeance for the private stocks that had driven him to death. How can someone who has been in mortal crisis think that less than a week ago be this optimistic, but there is no need to buy here now. There was no one to avenge, but burning only the vengeance was nothing more than the act of taking my flesh. When you rest, you must rest so that you can use your strength later.

“Let's check out the Point Shop. ”

The current point of possession of meteors was about 1.5 million points.

Yooseong opened the Point Shop window and started browsing the store.

I looked around the store for a long time, but I couldn't find anything worth buying. The points I currently had were obscure enough to buy an item.

Trying to use cheap items was poor performance and I didn't have enough points to buy good items.

“I also don't have enough points to buy a unique item to use…… Should I keep it……. ”

Titania appeared just as he was contemplating closing the shop window.

“Titania Appears! Thank goodness you look healthy! But if you pull out the knife, you have to cut through the radish! If you opened the shop, wouldn't you have to buy something? ”

Titania, who appeared to sell goods to Yooseong, was filled with the will to sell her face.

‘What in the world made that cute fairy like that……. ’

“Rings and earrings are so expensive that you can't even afford them or buy weapons or defense gear. We anticipated that too! That's why we're ready! Altar of points! ”

“The Point Altar? ”

“Yes! Redeem points for this altar! ”

“Donations are frozen to death. ”

“Don't worry about it! If you'd listened to me, you'd want to make a point at the altar right now. ”

“Oh, no, no, no. ”

“Let's hear it and make a decision... ”

Here it comes. Take a look at what multilevel vendors are saying and decide. I expected it to come out of Titania's mouth one day, but I didn't expect it to come out so soon. However, it did not work for Yooseong who had met many drug dealers and multi-level salespeople.

“Where is this going to sell me drugs? You think I've dealt with this once or twice? ”

“If you listen to me now, I'll give you 10 special Nymph health drinks! ”

“A special fairy health drink? ”

“A high-quality drink that cares about taste and nutrition! One bottle of this will refresh anyone who's been snoring! It's not a loss just to listen! Hmph!”

Titania twitched her finger and told him.

‘If you're just listening. ’

It was not a loss to just listen clearly.

“Then give it a try. ”

“Honk, I knew you would! ”

Prior to the commencement of the explanation, Titania used magic to summon a small altar in front of his eyes.

“This is an altar that is shaped like magic to make it easier for me to understand Yooseong! Made with Mana! First of all, this altar is the altar of the gods! ”

“So?”

“In Yooseong's world, humans used to offer sacrifices and sacrifice to the gods, right? This is the altar used by man to offer tribute to the gods. Offer points or items to this altar. ”

“What happens if you offer it to the altar? ”

“When the tribute to the altar fulfills its quota, you receive gifts from God or the Spirit! ”

“Gifts? Can't we just sponsor them? What difference does it make what the gods support Hunter? ”

“I have different intentions. Pleasure. Pleasure is old in return for the gods' satisfaction! because if you're giving it to me, it's kind of like a yahoo. ”

“Hmmm... Really? ”

“There are a lot of good items to offer as an offering to the altar, but few Hunters continue to use the altar because many Hunters are reluctant to offer points to the altar. ”

“What is your quota for tribute? ”

“First of all, two million points. ”

“Well……. ”

Hearing Titania's story, offering points to this altar doesn't seem so bad. It was a little awkward for only a few Hunters to offer tribute to the altar, but on the contrary, it was interpreted as a tribute because the few Hunters continued to offer tribute to the altar.

‘It's a bit of a waste of points…. ’

It may seem a bit regrettable, but it doesn't look bad to invest obscure points in an altar to gain items, even if you're short of 500,000 points, but you should be able to collect them soon. Yooseong has decided to concentrate points on the altar.

“Very well. I will build an altar. ”

“Wise choice! ”

Yooseong made a point on the altar. The point absorption was nothing. The equation ended with the point disappearing in no time.

Seeing the point of disappearing suddenly, I felt somewhat regretful, but decided it was an investment in an item that I could get later.

Yooseong closed the item window and turned on the TV again. It was time to rerun the Doctor's Season 157. I couldn't miss it.
