“I will take the late blooming skill . ”
“You won’t regret this choice?”
“It is my choice . I have no regrets . ”
Hyeonu’s choice was the late blooming skill . Hyeonu’s idea was that even if he climbed quickly, he wouldn’t be able to keep his position if he didn’t have any vision .
“Then I will give you what you selected . ”
Raccoon reached for Hyeonu’s hand . Hyeonu instinctively dodged the huge hand that headed toward him . Even so, he couldn’t escape . Hyeonu gave his hand like he was attracted by a magnet . Raccoon’s magic power poured out like a storm into Hyeonu’s hands .
“Okay, is it done now?”
Hyeonu didn’t respond to Raccoon’s question . It was due to his dazed spirit . The fullness of the magic power that swept over his body was like a drug . It was a wave of magic power that he had never felt before .
“Y . . . Yes . ”
[A skill has been created . ]
[Magic Power Compression]
[Magic power is compressed to exert a stronger power .
Type: Continuous
Rating: Unique
Skill Proficiency: F
The effect of magic power is increased by 20% . ]
The distracted Hyeonu finally checked the skill information . Then his mouth dropped open .
‘Unique?’
The skill that Raccoon gave to Hyeonu was unique rated . It was a skill that increased the power of magic power . Magic power-related skills were one of the things everyone wanted the most when playing Arena .
‘Amazing . Amazing!!!’
Raccoon kept speaking to Hyeonu, “Ah, one more thing . If you ever meet Cancun, tell him something . ”
He continued with a desolate tone that couldn’t be imagined from the orc who emitted a fierce atmosphere just a moment ago, “Your home is here, the Black Forest . ”
“I understand . ”
[A quest has been created . ]
[Raccoon’s Message]
[The father, Raccoon, has a message for his son, Cancun . If you ever meet, tell it to him .
Rating: C+
Conditions: Tell Cancun about Raccoon 0/1 .
Rewards: Experience, Raccoon’s Gift]
‘Kuoh . He is a generous orc . ’
Hyeonu smiled at his quest window while Raccoon continued speaking . “Additionally, tell that bear this—that necklace contained no magic in the first place . So he did nothing wrong . ”
“Yes . I will . ”
Hyeonu said goodbye to Raccoon and Dakan and tore a scroll .
“Gang Hyeonu! Hey! Dude! Wake up . ” Yeongchan woke up Hyeonu who was sleeping on the couch . Hyeonu had fallen asleep while watching the reactions and views of the video posted on his channel .
“Ah . . . Sorry . I was sleepy . ” Hyeonu looked blank . He had been hunting tirelessly for days . For such a Hyeonu, Yeongchan linked his laptop to the huge wall-mounted TV .
“Look . This is your number of views . ”
[Views: 176,488]
“170,000? Why is it so high?” Hyeonu was stunned when he saw the number of hits . It had risen when he was asleep . The number was too high .
“Originally, it wasn’t that much . Then I spread your video through the community using many methods . ” Yeongchan cleverly mixed truth and falsehoods .
Hyeonu’s eccentric fashion was a hot topic in Arena’s community . Yeongchan had used this to promote it .
“Really? Thank you, Yeongchan . ” Hyeonu didn’t know the truth and was just grateful to Yeongchan . Yeongchan and Hyeonu looked at the comments on the video together and talked about the future direction they would take .
[Hello . This is Nike Management . ]
Yeongchan checked his emails as Hyeonu went to get a drink . The mailbox contained an email that caused Yeongchan to doubt his eyes for a moment . Yeongchan glanced at Hyeonu and yelled at the top of his lungs, “Hey!! Gang Hyeonu, come over quickly!!”
“Why? Again?”
“Quickly! Just come here!”
Hyeonu rushed over at Yeongchan’s urging .
“Look at this . You received an email from Nike . ”
“Nike? Are you talking about that Nike?”
“Yes, that Nike . ”
Hyeonu also couldn’t contain his excitement after confirming the identity of the email .
[To: Argon]
[Hello, Argon .
I am Kale Brown, and I’m the head of sales at Nike Management .
Our Nike Management is a management agency created by Nike, a company everyone knows, to watch only Arena .
(Omitted) .
The reason I’m sending this email is no different . It is because I want to bring the main character of the video [PK Bugs Catching Video . avi] to Nike Management .
Please carefully consider it and contact me at the below number at your convenience .
Contact: XXX-XXXX-XXXX
Email: [email protected]]
“He wants to recruit you . ”
“I saw it . ”
Hyeonu’s hands trembled . Nike Management was arguably the best company in Arena at the moment .
“Don’t you have to go?”
“Of course . This isn’t the level of an opportunity . It is a lottery win . ”
“Right?”
Hyeonu was still bewildered . It had only been a week since he returned to Arena . Many things had happened in the meantime, but this was the most dramatic moment .
“Then I’ll start by calling them . ” Hyeonu dialed the number written in the email . Although he could reply by email, it would take some time to receive a response to the email . He couldn’t even wait that long . Hyeonu used the fluent English he had learned in the past .
“Hello?”
-Who is this?
“I saw the email you sent me and called . ”
-Ah! Thank you . I am Kale .
“I am Gang Hyeonu . ”
-Thank you for the phone call . Then I’ll speak bluntly . Are you willing to contract with us? I am confident that the conditions are better than anywhere else .
Kale asked Hyeonu directly . Would he form a contract with them?
Hyeonu also had a blunt personality . “Yes . I’ll contract with Nike . ”
-Where do you live?
“I live in Seoul . It is in South Korea . ”
-Seoul . . . There is quite a time difference . I’ll send you an email . I’m fine, but it will be late at night for you . Check first and tell me if there are any issues you want to fix . I’ll look into it as soon as possible .
“I’ll see and tell you what I’ve decided . ”
The phone call was successful . Kale and Hyeonu both got what they wanted . Since then, Hyeonu exchanged emails with Kale . The date they determined was Saturday, three days later .

Ellis was waiting for Gang Hyeonu’s email . To be exact, it was his video .
“Ohh, it came, it came . ”
Finally, a video arrived from Hyeonu . Ellis took a deep breath . It was in preparation to watch the video with reverence .
‘I will edit after watching it once . ’
Ellis couldn’t hold onto his determination . Hyeonu’s video thrilled Ellis .
An intense momentum that overwhelmed his opponents . . .
The timing of his creepy attacks . . .
Movements that seemed to foresee the opponent’s attacks . . .
Everything was literally perfect .
“It’s crazy . It’s totally crazy!!!”
At the end of the video, Ellis moved his hand over the play button like it was natural . Ellis had watched and edited the videos of numerous players . Yet none were like the man in the video . Alley Leader—Ellis didn’t know what this meant . The client just used this as his ID . After watching the video, Alley Leader had become a god in Ellis’ mind .
A god . . . In combat, Alley Leader was like a god .
“Is he sending the videos slowly because the price is a burden?”
Should Ellis lower the price further?
“I’d like to see more videos…” Ellis murmured as he edited the video . “It can’t be helped . I’ll cut the price . Then I can ask for more videos . ”
Hyeonu unwittingly reduced his editing costs .
“Boss, the contract to sign the player in the video is done . ”
“That’s great . I think he will certainly show a fantastic synergy with us . ”
“I think so as well . Ah, his name is Gang Hyeonu . His nickname is Alley Leader, but it is hard to pronounce . Therefore, I decided to call him Mr . G . ”
“Mr G . . . It’s a good name . ”
Kale handed Jamie his tablet PC . One video was prepared on the tablet PC .
“What is this?”
“It is the video that Mr . G will upload tomorrow . If you watch this video, you’ll understand that this recruitment is a huge opportunity for us . ”
Once the video started, Jamie couldn’t keep his eyes off the tablet PC . The video showed Hyeonu in a one-against-three duel with Park Junu’s group . Hyeonu, who had a relatively low level, would’ve become a big issue just by winning a duel against the high-leveled Shan or Gain . Yet Hyeonu smashed all three of them .
Then the video was touched by Ellis, who was considered one of the best game video editors . It was no wonder that Jamie felt immersed in the video . As he thought this, the video ended in a flash . The video had this much suction power .
“This is a video that is appealing his skills . It is like he is saying, ‘I’m to this extent . ’ It’s awesome,” Jamie said . Then he also mentioned the video editing, “I don’t know who did the video editing, but it is excellent . I think it is probably impossible for us to edit it to this extent . ”
Kale responded to Jamie's words, “There is a dedicated editor . He is very famous . It is Ellis from Ellis Movies . ”
“He's a great friend . Our editors won’t be any good . At least, this time . ” Jamie showed a delighted expression . “We created an outstanding star called MJ in the past . Then in order to make stars in Arena, we recruited attractive players, not just good players . Isn’t that right?”
Kale shrugged at Jamie’s words . It was his method of confirmation .
“If MJ is the god of the past, then it is clear Mr . G will be the god of the future . We have to grab him no matter what it takes . ”
Hyeonu returned to Aslan, and his first stop was the integrated auction house . Now that he had reached level 32, he felt the need to change weapons . He collected 3,000 gold from selling the three inventories he obtained from Len’s group . It was a very large amount of money, but it didn’t hold up to Hyeonu’s heart .
‘I’m going to buy a unique weapon . ’
Now that Tang-E was sharing his experience, he needed a unique weapon for faster hunting . It was a weapon that would match even high level hunting grounds .
“Sell this, this too . I can use this . ”
Hyeonu also organized the inventory he obtained from his duel with Park Junu’s group . They had been close to level 70, so there were many rare items . However, there was only one thing that Hyeonu could use .
[Swamp Frog Shoes]
[Shoes made from the skin of frogs living in the swamp . If you wear them, it feels like you can jump for some reason .
Rating: Rare
Restrictions: More than 80 agility .
Durability: 200/200
Defense: 40
Effect: Agility +15, jumping height increases slightly . ]
‘Isn’t this worth at least 500 gold?’
Hyeonu liked the dark leather shoes . He felt better because he got an item worth 500,000 won for free .
“What should I do while waiting for the items in the auction house to sell?”
Ah! Hyeonu finally remembered . There was the necklace Dakan gave him . The impact of the Raccoon’s unique skill was so great that he forgot about the necklace . Hyeonu opened his inventory and pulled out the necklace that Dakan gave him . The necklace was made of small bones, but a bit of vigor could be felt from the necklace . He suddenly thought of Dakan and Raccoon .
Bururu . Hyeonu trembled subconsciously as he was reminded of Raccoon . It seemed to be imprinted in him . That horror . . .
“Item Information . ”
Hyeonu confirmed the information of the necklace . He thought it would be rare rated at the very least .
“Eh?”
