Trait Absorption Hunter Hunter 144
144. Pet Master’s Interests
[On the evening of the 5th, the body of Mr. Park (70), an elderly man living alone, was found dead in an alley in Seoul. The body was so badly damaged that it was unrecognizable, and it was suspected to be a murder, as it was wrapped in a garbage bag. The police said that since the body was in a state where it seemed difficult to use ordinary physical force, they planned to conduct a joint investigation with the association, keeping in mind the possibility that Hunter was the culprit… … .]
When the news about his crime four days ago was published, Kim Byeong-su smirked.
‘Yes. Investigate diligently in cooperation with the Association. But you won’t find any evidence.’
He committed the murder in a place where there was no CCTV and the sound was blocked by Familiar’s skill.
Moreover, since he had ordered hunting dogs to kill him, there would have been no fingerprints left behind and as far as he knew, there were no witnesses.
‘First of all, since I used the eraser, I shouldn’t be a suspect.’
After committing a murder, Kim Byeong-su, as always, left the scene to erase all traces.
There was no need to worry about being affected since it was a skill that erased one’s very existence for 24 hours.
A state of absolute hiding that cannot be detected even by hunters with higher fighting power than you.
Maybe that’s why I’ve never received a single call from the police even though I’ve committed murders so far.
They said they couldn’t even identify him as a suspect.
‘Even if there is progress in the investigation, it will be difficult to catch me. By then, I will have already fled to another country.’
It’s not that Kim Byung-soo is scheduled to leave for another country today.
‘I think South America would be a good place to travel this time.’
There’s no chance of getting caught since you’re going to the other side of the world.
Kim Byeong-su, who had been packing his travel items into his carrier, finally finished preparing.
“It’s time.”
Just as I was about to leave the house dragging my carrier.
Woohoo-
A notification arrived on my phone.
[An item you have registered as an interest in Hunter Market has been uploaded. Would you like to check it?]
Hunter Market is Korea’s largest hunter item trading site, available only to registered hunters.
Many people used it because anyone from anywhere in the country could upload items.
Kim Byeong-su was also a member of the site.
Sometimes I could easily get the items I needed from the Hunter Market.
‘Yesul is also the child I saved here.’
The Black Cat Summoning Skill Book, which is said to be difficult to obtain, was also traded through the Hunter Market.
After paying a whopping sum of 2 billion won.
however.
‘The item you registered as an interest has been uploaded?’
The interest designated by Kim Byung-soo is the Summoning Skill Book.
Among them, the skill book he had was excluded.
‘You haven’t been up for two months and you’re finally up now.’
Since I had already purchased all the summoning skill books, I thought there would be no new skill books to come out.
But before leaving the country, one thing came up.
I couldn’t help but look forward to it.
‘The fact that it appeared in the notification means that it’s a summon that I haven’t learned.’
Kim Byeong-su, who logged into the app to check what the item was, couldn’t help but be surprised.
‘What is this? A skill book for summoning a ghost wolf?’
Kim Byeong-su couldn’t take his eyes off his phone as he saw the skill book for the first time in his life.
‘A ghost wolf… … This can’t be… … .’
Isn’t this a summoner whose name alone is enough to make you think it’s rare?
“You didn’t upload this as a joke… … .”
Kim Byeong-su, who had been mumbling, closed his mouth after seeing the information posted by the seller.
[Skill – Summon Ghost Wolf]
– Grade: B
-Effect: Summons a ghost wolf.
-Usage Restrictions: Level 500 or higher
-Description: A secret weapon left behind by the death summoner Clark. It follows its master well.
The information window of the skill book that was taken for authentication was proving that it was no joke.
‘Go, I want it!’
He had gathered all the summoned beasts by type, but this was his first time seeing a ghost wolf.
Naturally, I couldn’t help but feel possessive.
‘What kind of child will he be? A ghost wolf. Just hearing the name makes me excited… …!’
The old man was as excited as a child who discovered a new toy.
The seller didn’t care how he got the skill book.
All he had to do was get hold of a rare skill book that he had never seen before.
‘I have to buy it at all costs.’
Traveling wasn’t important right now.
You must buy the skill book in front of you no matter how much it costs.
‘It’s a good thing I didn’t leave this country yet. I almost missed my chance to buy a ghost wolf.’
The old man’s eyes sparkled with greed.
Travel has long since taken a back seat.

‘Okay. The bait has been thrown… … .’
Min Do-jun, who registered the Ghost Wolf Summoning Skill Book at the Hunter Market, smiled with satisfaction.

‘Now all you have to do is take the bait.’
Min Do-jun threw bait to draw out Kim Byeong-su who was hiding in the water.
It was posted that the Ghost Wolf Summoning Skill Book was being sold at the Hunter Market.
‘If it were Kim Byeong-su, I would never just pass it by.’
Min Do-jun knew that the pet master had a hobby of collecting summoned creatures.
Even to the point of always keeping an eye out for new items coming up on the Hunter Market.
‘That’s how I took it out, knowing that.’
If it’s Kim Byeong-su, it would be his first time seeing the rare summon, the Ghost Wolf.
There’s absolutely no way I could just pass it by.
‘I’m going to buy the skill book no matter how much it costs.’
That’s why he had registered the skill book in the form of an auction at the Hunter Market.
In the process, the registrant’s personal information, facial photo, hunter registration card, etc.
It was a tedious process to go through identity verification, but it was worth it.
‘Because the item was uploaded under Kim Jae-won’s name, not mine anyway.’
Just in case you get tracked down or have trouble, I put a Black Sea Guild member in your place.
Of course, Kim Jae-won did not question Ahn Kwang-hyun’s instructions and uploaded the items as instructed.
‘I didn’t know that I would be using the skill book I got from defeating the Ghost Island boss like this?’
Min Do-jun, who had already learned the Ghost Wolf Summoning skill, didn’t need the skill book.
So I kept it in my inventory with the intention of selling it someday, but I never thought I would end up using it like this.
‘Now all I have to do is wait for him to get caught.’
Min Do-jun was confident.
Just as a cat can’t pass up a fish shop, a pet master can’t pass up an opportunity to get a ghost wolf.
‘I’m definitely going to participate in the online auction to buy the skill book.’
What if the skill book falls into Kim Byeong-su’s hands through an auction?
‘I have to meet him and kill him under the pretense of a direct transaction. And on top of that, I’ll get hundreds of millions in sales money.’
In short, it’s like killing two birds with one stone.
There is no damage to Min Do-jun.
Even if the skill book falls into Kim Byeong-su’s hands, he can just kill him and get it back anyway.
‘For this to go according to plan, Kim Byeong-su must first win the skill book… … .’
There is a possibility that Kim Byeong-su’s money may run out and someone else may win the bid.
‘At that time, there was no choice but to break the deal.’
If a seller registered in the Hunter Market breaks their promise and fails to complete a transaction, they will be blacklisted, which will cause problems in future use… … .
‘It doesn’t matter since it’s not my name anyway.’
Since sales were being made under Kim Jae-won’s name, there was no need to worry about Min Do-jun being blamed.
‘I wrote down my phone number just in case, so even if Kim Byeong-su fails to win the bid, there won’t be a problem.’
If the bid fails, Kim Byeong-su will call and ask to bargain because he feels sorry.
‘At that time, I should sell it to Kim Byeong-su, not the successful bidder.’
In any case, Kim Byeong-su was determined to do his best to get the skill book.
Because I pulled out the trump card called the Ghost Wolf with the sole intention of meeting him.
‘It’s painful to reveal the existence of the Ghost Wolf, but it can’t be helped.’
It is certain that the existence of the Ghost Wolf will be made known to the world through this auction.
‘Anyway, the skill isn’t known, and all that’s known is that such a summon exists, so… … .’
It might not be as damaging as you think.
‘First, we have to make sure that Kim Byeong-su wins the bid.’
Not only Kim Byeong-su, but other hunters will also see the items and participate in the auction.
‘If we want to prevent idiots from participating, we need to raise the stakes from the beginning.’
Since Kim Byung-soo will try to buy it anyway, it would be okay to raise the stakes.
Min Do-jun smiled faintly as he gave instructions to the Black Sea Guild members in time for the auction to start.
With this, all preparations to lure Kim Byeong-su were completed.

[Title: Selling Ghost Wolf Summon Skill Book.]
[Contents: This is a skill book that I obtained with difficulty in a hidden dungeon. As you can see from the information window that I uploaded with my smartphone, the item is authentic, and it is a new product that has not been opened. No negotiation, no enuri, and I only sell at the final auction price that is set, and I want to do direct transactions. If you have any inquiries, please contact the number below. 010-4012-XX32]
Kim Byeong-su read the post on Hunter Market and immediately called the number.
However, I could only hear the sound of a call being made and the call did not connect.
No matter how many times I walked, it was the same.
Kim Byeong-su shook his legs as if he was nervous, as was his habit.
‘I have a ton of questions to ask, but why…?’
Since I couldn’t get through on the phone, I thought I should send a text message, so I sent the message.
[Hello, I’m looking to buy a Ghost Wolf. Can you tell me what its abilities are?]
As soon as I sent the text, a reply came right away.
[I don’t know because I haven’t used it. It’s literally a new product.]
[Do you have any intention of selling it to me? I will give you a reasonable price.]
[Sorry, I will only sell it at auction.]
Kim Byeong-su’s expression crumpled after seeing the reply.
‘Damn. What if another guy comes along like this?’
Since it was going to be an auction, I couldn’t help but feel anxious.
Because there’s a chance it could be stolen by someone with a lot of money.
‘How much cash do I have?’
Kim Byeong-su checked the account.
Because I had so much money, I didn’t even know how much I had.
‘There’s about 150 billion in it.’
It was money I had saved over 11 years of being a hunter.
No, it was more like money that just piled up somehow.
That’s because the amount of money a level 2,500 hunter could make was enormous.
‘I need to charge it first.’
Kim Byung-soo converted 150 billion won of his money into Hunter Market mileage.
Only with this mileage can you participate in the auction and raise the auction price by the amount of mileage you have.
[Time left until auction starts: 3 minutes 32 seconds]
Kim Byung-soo waited anxiously, seeing that there wasn’t much time left.
‘It shouldn’t exceed 150 billion.’
After waiting with shaking legs, the auction began when the remaining time reached 0.
[Time left until auction ends: 23 hours, 59 minutes, 59 seconds]
The starting price for the auction is 10,000 won.
Kim Byeong-su entered the bid amount.
‘Should we start with 1 million won?’
I wrote down 1 million won in small amounts.
Since the auction lasts for 24 hours, you should not write a large amount from the beginning.
You need to adjust your pace.
‘I must get it… … .’
For a moment, Kim Byeong-su was unable to continue speaking.
‘What, what is this… …!’
Because the refreshed amount was ridiculously high.
Kim Byeong-su muttered the amount without realizing it.
