The Skill Maker

"What the hell do you have to do to make a living in Dr. Doctor's class? Are you going to go to the bar and tell me what to do?"

"Yes? Oh, no. I'm not that crazy. No, they don't accept minors in places like that. Of course, even if you accept it, you don't have the courage to go in. Why is it a little scary?"

"Well. Well, that's probably true. So? What do you do to make money after all?"

Baek So-young smiled cutely and stuck out her tongue.

Make your fingers round and look at me through.

"Hehe, the truth is. At first, I was going to buy something and participate in the game... There's a 20-year-old age limit here, so I had to give up. So after that, I ended up buying something."

An X-fink or a horse race.

Look at him, by the way. I have more ideas than I thought.

Well, if it's something that's related to something, then it's quite appropriate. Of course, it's hard to say that's a normal livelihood. By the way, if you had the ability to play lottery, you would have made a lot of money.

Ah. Don't get me wrong.

This is by no means encouraging gambling.

Don't gamble, everyone.

If you play a lot of lottery, you'll lose.

Or are you as rich as I am, pretending to be crazy for 100,000 years?

"You bought a lottery ticket? What did you get?

"What? Jesus. Are there so many types of lottery tickets? I just bought it."

Yeah. High school students should have this pure taste. But she didn't last long. Oh, of course, Lotto does not mean that there is no aspect of gambling. In fact, if you look closely at the world of Lotto, there are a lot of people who have easily lost hundreds of millions of won. There are many unidentified companies that make money by attracting people's attention by giving them a lotto number with a high probability.

"Oh, yeah. Good job. You don't have to know anything else. At first glance, the lottery seems to be just collecting money from a lot of people and giving it to one or two people, but in the end, the organizers are all trying to seduce people because it's a life reversal. There's nothing good about knowing a lot."

"Yes. I'll keep that in mind, brother."

"Now, so. Who's number one in Lotto? Have you ever been caught? If it's your ability, isn't it?"

Why am I so excited when I hear this story? It's not like I don't have any money. For some reason, I am dying of curiosity about Baek So-young's behind story. I think she's a class of 's power. Does he jump into the lottery war, which is issued in Korea? Where is the world's most interesting story?

But I was disappointed when I heard the back story.

In conclusion, she didn't earn much.

"I've never been in first or second place. Those below third place have had countless times."

"...what? No, wait a minute. What the hell? Shouldn't you be lying down for the first and second place in Lotto?"

Baek So-young shook her head slowly.

"I'm ashamed, but I was in the early days of awakening, and I wasn't as strong as I am now. It was nothing more than a figure. Above all, even if you consume all of them at once, you can't get first or second place in Lotto. Oh, for your information, my luck is now. Generally, luck is the way the gauge is reset to full based on one month. So, if you spend 450 at a time, you have to live with zero for the rest of the time. So, in reality, we divide it into small pieces and use it when we need it."

That's a very unusual operation.

But it was a very interesting story.

Well, all hunters' abilities are usually limited by force. There was nothing strange about having such a step-by-step process. For your information, I also needed countless materials in the past.

Now I'm completely free from those limitations.

In that way, I wondered what would happen in the future if Baek's abilities were much more advanced than now. Because I've never seen anyone who has the ability to reflect the class itself. In other words, Baek So-young's class was not specialized in combat, but it was also considered quite valuable.

Like me.

"Well, I've made a little bit of money thanks to the lottery. About 200 million? Of course, more than 90 percent of the money went back to his surgery."

Baek So-young is a high school student. So I don't think you have to work hard to make money. It all turned out to be my own illusion. She says that unlike most Korean high school students who naturally live under their parents, their father was lying down and had to use his skills diligently to pay for the surgery.

Starting with lottery tickets, I bought items from dungeon cheaply and resold them, opened random item boxes that others put up at a bargain price, got good items, and even touched on part-time job performance-based work. The more I listened to them, the more I felt that Baek So-young's life was more uncomfortable than I thought.

"But I miss the days when I was on Earth. Father, mother, both... They were really good people. I still think sometimes... Oh, no. I just happened to feel so sentimental. What's wrong with me today? It's weird."

I quickly changed the subject.

I'm going to cry for no reason.

Not while eating.

"Hmmm... by the way. Speaking of which, I'm asking. Do you have any other "special skills" of your own class? It doesn't mean much, but I'm just curious. Oh, is it rude to ask this?"

"Oh, it's all right, brother. I'm not even going to do it anyway. Just because I tell you, it doesn't mean I'm going to die. What should I do? Do you want me to show you right away?"

"Good."

I nod my head

Baek Soyoung, who raises her index finger towards this side.

Soon after, she drew a circle in the air.

A wave of mana that spreads slightly around.

And that was it all.

It's as simple.

"...what did you just do?"

"This is the special skill my class has. The exact technical name is the ability to freely observe other people's figures."

"Oh? Really? That's quite unusual."

Definitely not for combat.

However, Baek's ability was quite plausible.

You can check your opponent's luck figures.

There's all sorts of weird techniques.

But the problem is...

What's the benefit of seeing your opponent's luck?

Doesn't it mean nothing just by looking at it?

Did he read my thoughts from my expression?

Baek added an additional explanation, sulking her cheeks.

"Wow...! Minhyuk, you just thought it was a little bit of a skill, didn't you? But it's never such a shallow force. In general, not just me, but all beings in the universe have a one-month cycle of luck. And when you use it all, it becomes zero, and over time it fills up to the size of your bowl. In other words, this ability allows you to take a closer look at how much your opponent's luck is currently used and how big the container is. What do you think? Do you understand me?"

What the hell did you do?

Isn't that the same thing you just said?

Did he read my thoughts again by looking at my sullen face?

Baek So-young spoke again as if she was frustrated.

You just quit being a gambler and be a mind reader.

"That is, if you use 's situation to suit your situation, you can measure the amount of luck you have left and decide whether to fight or not when you have to fight with someone or make an important bet. If my opponent's remaining luck is close to zero, my chances of winning are extremely high. You can pick only those people and fight, or you can use your luck to respond."

"Hey. You use it for that? You're pretty good."

"Ahem!"

Oh! Definitely.

I can't believe you can use it for that purpose.

According to the explanation, Unssi is quite universal.

That's more than I imagined.

"Well, from now on, let's use 's to see how lucky your brother is. In general, most beings are born with about 40 to 60 lucky values. I was also 50 at first... wow! What is this?"

Baek So-young looked at me smiling brightly.

But after a while she burst out screaming and looked quite surprised. a blank stare into the air between the two Huh? What's wrong with him? Are you surprised to see my luck figures? What the hell do I have to see to make that weird face?

"Me, Minhyuk? What the hell is wrong with you?"

"What? Why. Is there something wrong with my luck?"

"That's ridiculous. This is... This is absolutely ridiculous. I've never seen such a high figure."

"Explain it."

[Choi Min-hyuk]

Luck: 45 / 3450

The size of my lucky vessel is 3450.

Nevertheless, the remaining good fortune is 45, and Baek was surprised. According to her explanation, she has seen the fortune of countless people, but she has never seen such a high existence. Even the man who is capable of using something as his main focus is only 450 people.

"Well, that's amazing. I never imagined that there would be 3,000 lucky figures. But the only thing left is 45... Minhyuk. Did something really good happen over the past few weeks? Or something terrible happened."

"Hmm..."

Good thing? If it's good, it's up to [nonsense] class and electoral district.

Bad? Bad things come to mind the face of Berkus.

Yeah. There must be something worse than that.

Baek So-young opened her mouth again.

"As I said before, most beings are born with about 40 to 60 luck. And even if you use it all month long, you don't use up your luck and the numbers are reset again. In short, it is extremely rare for humans to run out of their luck. But."

"......"

"You're lucky enough to be 3450, but you've almost used it up. In other words, it's right to say that you've had a great deal of good luck, or you've had a great deal of bad luck, and you've managed to get away with it. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Uh. Roughly?"

Ah. Is that so?

In other words, is it used as a fuel to make something especially good happen, or to overcome something bad? If that's true, I think I know why we only have 45 left in luck. Apparently, he must have consumed a great deal of good fortune in the process of meeting Lilina Heathcam and getting out of Berkus' grasp. This is crazy.

Baek So-young warned me.

"Anyways, I think it would be fair to say that the amount of luck left for you is only 45. It's far too small for the general public, by your standards. I mean, you're living a complicated life that costs 3,405 in less than a month."

A complicated life?

Yeah. That'sure.

My fate is a bit like that.

"A 45-year-old lucky enough to make it hard to get out when something dangerous happens. So be as careful as you can and be careful in many ways until the numbers are completely reset again. If there's another big crisis... ...then I might not be on his side."

"If the figure is low, you will be shunned by the goddess."

I gave a slight faint sigh.

I never thought I'd ever get a chance to get a luck consultant. However, Baek So-young's words made so much sense that I'm getting goosebumps. And after listening to the story so far, I feel a little bit stuffy.

I'm sure he will.

I'm actually.

It was because he was operating several bodies at once.

It was a day when fatigue overlapped...

I want to go on vacation too!
