Episode 14. Do you have skills too? (2)
————————
No matter what the ghost said, the voice told me.
[Please select a skill card.]
This is definitely reality!
Two brass-colored cards began flying quickly. Swish. Swish. The cards moved around so quickly that it was crazy, but there was something else that really caught my attention.
-Hey. Well, there are all these scams! It’s too hard to copy the skills of monsters. hey. Who is managing this tower? Why didn’t they give this skill to a hunter with a lot of concepts like me, but give it to a bastard like me?
‘ah. Please be quiet.’
-come out! This is invalid. Oh, I really have a temper tantrum!
Bae Hu-ryeong was indignant and waved his arms and legs. What can I say… it was just ugly. She was like a child who was upset because she wasn’t given candy. It was so ugly that I wondered if an adult could be this ugly.
‘Ugh. ‘I should just focus on the cards.’
I looked at the two brass-colored cards flying in the air.
‘Either way, it’s a shit-colored card, so it’s not a good skill…’
Still, my heart was pounding. oh my god. It’s a monster’s skill. I can’t believe I can share the same skills as a monster! It felt like he was doing something secretive or like he was playing a bad prank.
‘I’m curious.’
I slowly stretched out my hand.
‘Let’s just choose something!’
It was literally a time when I was trying to grab any card.
-uh? what. Choose that one?
The ghost couldn’t stand it anymore and meddled again. The boyish spirit that made my heart pound quickly cooled down. anyway. The skill in breaking the colic was amazing.
‘yes. It doesn’t matter what you choose anyway.’
-Why doesn’t it matter?
Bae Hu-ryeong was looking across from the other side of the card.
-You look like you’re going to suck anyway, so you should pick out the best skills if you can.
‘So you can’t know which card is the better skill. They’re both the color of shit. ‘This is just a game of luck.’
-ok? Why can’t I figure out which skill is better?
‘Oh, that’s right. ‘You’re having a hard time communicating today.’
I shouted out of frustration.
‘The card color is the same! I can only see the back side! There is no way to distinguish between the two, so how can you figure out which skill is better?’
Bae Hu-ryeong then tilted his head.
-Can you see me?
‘yes?’
-You can see the front of the card.
Bae Hu-ryeong said with a shameless face. I was dumbfounded.
‘That doesn’t sound like anything…’
I was about to ask, “Is this a sound?”, but realized it midway through.
location!
From my position, I could only see the back of the card. Even if you look around, the cards also move in the same way. Just like you can’t see the back side of the moon from Earth, I could never tell what was written on the other side of the card.
But that’s just my story.
Bae Hu-ryeong roamed around as he pleased in this dark space.
okay.
Even in a position where the other side of the card was clearly visible, of course I was able to fly!
‘oh my god···.’
I muttered.
‘Can you see it from there? Do you really see the card description?’
Bae Hu-ryeong frowned.
-Of course you can see it. What do you think of my eyes that you say like that? I have been famous for my good visual acuity since I was young. There was a kid in the neighborhood named Gae Ddong, and he shot me with a gun. But what I’m saying is that when I was 5 years old, my eyes were good enough to avoid a bullet. Eventually, I even learned clairvoyance. Haha, I’m so handsome…
‘Eureka!’
-Wormma, f*ck you! Has he suddenly gone crazy! Why are you yelling?
Bae Hu-ryeong was surprised, but I didn’t care.
‘Eureka! Eureka! ‘Eurekaaaa!’
I’m just happy with the luck that has come my way.
Bae Hu-ryeong looked at me with strange eyes and clicked his tongue softly.
-He was called a zombie and even his brain was damaged like a zombie. Tsk tsk tsk…
2.
The identity of the cards that Bae Hu-ryeong revealed was as follows.
+
[Blessing of reproduction]
Rank: E
Effect: Ah, nature gives us a home, but at the same time, it gives us hardships! This tough world. The orc race overcame nature by maximizing their reproductive power. One orc was captured and killed? Do not worry. There are still 9 more that you haven’t seen!
※However, they suffer from estrus all year round.
[Chwiik, Chwik]
Rank: F
Effect: ‘We add chwiik to the end of every word. Chwiik.’ We don’t know why it’s like this! But you too should try a bowl of Chwiik.’ The orc gives a thumbs up. ‘Then you’ll never be able to escape from the fun of chwiik!’
※However, chwiikchwi.
+
‘Wow…’
Truly a shit-colored card.

It was all just crazy shit skills. It was difficult not to be amazed.
-how is it? If I hadn’t stopped him, he would have chosen you [Chwiik, Chwik]. Confucius, you were born a man. I should have the strength of an orc at least once. Hurry up and say thank you to me. Ego! hurry!
It was hard not to be amazed by the nonsense the ghost was talking about. In other words, it was so crazy that it was difficult to stop admiring it.
‘hmm.’
I ignored Bae Hu-ryeong and thought quietly.
‘If I had to choose between these, [Chwiik, Chwik] seems better.’
-ha? Are you crazy.
‘no. ‘I think you’re right.’
I nodded. I felt confident.
‘No matter how you look at it, [Chwiik, Chwik] is much more useful than [Blessing of Fertility].’
-Hey, hey! wait! Think about it a little more. Think calmly…!
Eat.
I laughed while watching Bae Hu-ryeong scurrying around.
‘I think you’re thinking the same thing as me.’
I quickly grabbed the poop-colored card before Bae Hu-ryeong could stop me further. The cards flew around quickly, but there were no major problems. I don’t know if there are multiple copies running at the same time, but right now there are only two.
[Selection complete. Copy the skill.]
[Returns to 24 hours ago.]
-Oh, no!
‘Okay!’
Bae Hu-ryeong and I’s shouts rang out like a choir.
[Your current hunter rank is F.]
[There is no penalty due to the skill.]
At the same time, the dark world became brighter.

Flashing. I opened my eyes.
“hmm!”
My mind felt refreshed.
“Ah, good. After all, people need a comfortable bed to relieve fatigue.”
This was no longer a 2-pyeong small room. Accommodation prepared separately at the request of Sangryun. It was a hotel room, not spacious, but spacious enough for one person. After winning the first prize lottery, I decided to stay here for a while.
Meanwhile.
-shit! I thought I’d be fooled, but it turned out to be just a bunch of unnecessary hair!
“Hehe.”
Bae Hu-ryeong floated in the air and kicked the air. She must have been upset that she couldn’t trouble me. hmm. Just looking at it made me feel calm, it was as beautiful as a landscape painting.
“Come on, take the elixir again… and the ability window.”
There was no reason to waste time here. I checked the ability window as I headed to the hunting ground.
+
Name: Gongja Kim
Rank: F grade
Skill (4/4)
1. I want to be like you (S+): Passive
2. Returner’s Clockwork (EX): Passive
3. Sword Constellation (A+): Passive
4. Chwiik, Chwik (F): Active
+
“good. “No problem.”
The skill slot is full. But it was okay. Even when it came time to acquire a new skill, all I had to do was put it where [Chwiik, Chwik] was.
Until you get the next skill, feel free to use it.
– Confucius. I’ve been thinking about it… and I think it’s okay to just quietly practice in the lotus position. There’s no need to train while dying in pain, right? Cross-legged position. Mental discipline. How cool is this?
“Whoa.”
Arrived at the hunting ground on the 3rd floor.
There was an orc wandering around in the distance.
-Grrr… Chung.
I took out the elixir while keeping an eye on the orcs’ positions. A hot thermos. I took a one-shot of the elixir contained there.
-hey. Confucius? Can’t you hear me? Let’s practice quietly? Even if you practice in the lotus position, I will help you master it within six months. Is there anything noble about training methods, huh? Just try to trust me.
“Hehe! “It tastes good.”
This was my second time trying this, but I felt like I was already getting a taste for it. It was clear that the pharmacist took care of the taste when making the elixir.
I said while waiting for the medicine to take effect.
“Geomje nobleman. “You know what?”
-uh? what? Are you going to sit cross-legged?
“When you have an advantage, you call me zombie, but when you have a disadvantage, you call me Confucius. And from earlier you called me Confucius, not a zombie.”
Excited.
“I am kindly informing you that you should change your habits.”
As soon as I finished speaking, the world before my eyes slowly flowed by.
My heart was pounding. I felt a faint flow again along with my pounding heart.
Auror!
The training method devised by Bae Hu-ryeong was definitely effective. Unlike the last episode, this time the auror was clearly visible right away.
“Whoa, whoa… whoa…”
I approached, taking a deep breath. I flinch. The orc’s ears perked up as he felt the presence of people. This huge green monster slowly turned around.
-Really?
The orc’s eyes widened. From that guy’s point of view, it was quite bewildering. The prey must be trotting towards him with his feet.
-Krrrrr!
The orc seemed to have decided to humbly accept this good fortune, raising his club high.
It was at that moment that I laughed in my heart.
[Activates the skill.]
I opened my mouth.
“Chwi… chwi! “Chung…!”
Stop. The orc’s eyes became bigger than before. The club that was splitting the air stopped midway.
-Chwiik… Chwiik? Take it… take it?
The orc tilted his head. He seemed to be wondering how to accept the fact that a mere prey had learned the language of his own people.
Of course, it was impossible to understand the current situation due to the limited IQ of an orc, and I was not lacking in IQ enough to miss a golden opportunity.
“Chwiik!”
Perfect Orcish words flowed from my mouth.
His Occitan language skills are literally at the level of a native speaker!
-Cr? Drunk…?
The monster in front of me was even more embarrassed. It was obvious that he was confused because he didn’t know what to do. In the end, even when I attacked, the orc was unable to resist.
Wow!
My knife gently cut the orc’s uvula. I poured just one drop of aura onto the tip of the knife, not too much or too little. Coo! As a fountain of blood exploded, the massive orc fell to the ground.
-Chwi… Luk…? Grrr…Chuck….
Whispering as if something was unfair.
Perhaps, in human terms, it would be ‘Brutus, even you!’ Wasn’t it the same deathly scream?
“Chwireuk.”
I smiled triumphantly. Although my body hurt from forcibly pulling out the auror, my condition was incomparable to the last time. It was okay. If I only consumed this much aura, there was no problem.
-You pathetic bastard! I knew it would be like this!
Bae Hu-ryeong trembled.
-Does it feel good to deceive a good orc like that? Ah!? You don’t even think about how the orcs feel and how they feel!? The pure orcs in this world are harmed because of dirty people like you!
I said, ‘I heard there is no such thing as a noble person in training?’ I didn’t question it.
Instead, he just returned a sneer.
“Chwiik!”
-Ahh! mad! it’s annoying! Why did you give fraud skills to such a loser, Top!?
When a week has passed.
I broke through to the 5th floor hunting ground.
