Effect: ????????]
“Uwah!!!”
This wasn’t a golden bead . It was a lump of shit that was useless to everyone . Hyeonu nervously placed this piece of shit into his inventory .
‘I killed it after so much hard work, but it gave me something like this?’
Still, peace soon filled Hyeonu’s face . The thought of three failures in a row started to dominate his brain, but he held hope for the last item .
‘Item Information . ’
[Dorma’s Red Blood]

“It came out!!!!!” Hyeonu finally received the jackpot . He grabbed Tang-E’s paws and started banging on them . “It came out! Tang-E! It came out!!”
Hyeonu became the central axis, and Tang-E was quickly spun around like a needle .
“Uwaaah! I know! Stop it!” Tang-E yelled at Hyeonu’s sudden and terrifying action while looking frightened .
‘I could’ve hidden it . . . ’ Tang-E thought .
Dorma’s Heart, the red bead that had been thrown to the ground by Hyeonu, was Tang-E’s favorite . Attracted by the enchanting scene, Tang-E looked for Dorma’s Heart . Then he finally found it . All he had to do was stretch out his foot and pinch it .
Just then, Hyeonu lifted up Tang-E .
“Let go of me quickly! Damn master!!!!!!”
Tang-E had to pick it up as quickly as possible to eat it or hide it . He just didn’t know when he could escape the clutches of his damn Master dude . Of course, he would never give it to his Master dude . Tang-E had eaten all the essences that dropped previously .
‘Once it is in my hands . . . ’ Tang-E remembered the essence that fell to the ground and let out a burst of laughter, “Hehe . ”
Then that laughter soon disappeared . It was because Hyeonu put down Tang-E and picked up Dorma’s Heart .
“Do you want it?” Hyeonu asked .
Tang-E nodded violently . “Give me . I want to eat it . Quickly . ”
Despite Tang-E’s earnest words, Hyeonu repeatedly threw Dorma’s Heart into the air several times . Tang-E’s gaze naturally followed Dorma’s Heart . It went up when Hyeonu threw it and went down when the bead fell .
Tang-E watched with trembling eyes in case it might fall to the ground .
“A~h . ”
“Ah~”
Going along with what Hyeonu said, Tang-E obediently opened his mouth wide, and Hyeonu carefully placed Dorma’s Heart into Tang-E’s mouth .
[The pet ‘Tang-E’ has taken Dorma’s Heart . ]
A red glow burst from Tang-E’s mouth and soon encircled Tang-E’s entire body .
[The strength stat has increased by 67 points . ]
[The agility stat has increased by 162 points . ]
[The physique stat has increased by 81 points . ]
[The magic power stat has increased by 182 points . ]
‘The stats went up well . ’
At this level, it was an intermediate effect . The total number of stat points was 492 . Just by level, it was an amount that could only be acquired after Tang-E gained 50 levels .
[Your pet ‘Tang-E’ has taken Dorma’s Heart, and a new skill has been created . ]

“Oho?” Hyeonu made an unexpected sound at the message that followed . Even the low probability of creating a skill had succeeded .
“It wasn’t the mask that was a jackpot . It was this?”
The biggest jackpot was something else . Tang-E’s rise in power—this was the biggest harvest .

Tang-E’s status window was gorgeous . They were the same stats that other rankers had . The only special thing was that it wasn’t biased to one stat . Generally, all of them were high .
‘It is terrible to imagine if it was biased to magic power . ’
If just 1,000 points were subtracted from the other stats and invested in magic power, Tang-E’s magic power would be over 6,000 . Magic based on 6,000 stat points . . . Just imagining it was horrifying .
‘Of course, it is horrifying for the opponents but not for me . After all, he isn’t going to shoot me . ’
Hyeonu imagined it while the red glow was absorbed by Tang-E . The light that covered his body gathered on Tang-E’s chest .
“Pfft!” Hyeonu laughed when he finally saw Tang-E after all the light had disappeared .
It wasn’t a ridiculing laugh . Rather, it was a pleasant laugh . It was because Tang-E’s appearance was so cute .
“Master dude, why are you laughing?” Tang-E cocked his head like he didn’t understand when he saw Hyeonu laughing at him .
“Tang-E, your paws lost their color . ” Hyeonu stretched out a finger and pointed at Tang-E’s paws . Tang-E’s paws, which had been red and blue, had regained their original black color .

“Eh? It is true . Master dude, my paws are back!!” Tang-E checked his paws again and again before rushing to Hyeonu . However, Hyeonu didn’t hug Tang-E .
“Why are you . . . Did something strange happen to your chest?” Hyeonu once again pointed to Tang-E .
This time, it was at the center of Tang-E’s chest . Tang-E looked down slowly . It was like watching a scary scene in a horror movie . Finally, Tang-E’s gaze reached his chest and found it had red fur .
“Eek!” Tang-E screamed .
“I guess it’s because you ate that . I’ll try to cover it up well . I told you many times that you shouldn’t eat anything just because it is delicious . Sigh,” Hyeonu rebuked Tang-E .
Of course, it was a joke . Tang-E’s red fur was precisely shaped like a heart, and it was symmetrical without any discrepancies . As he grabbed onto Hyeonu’s pants, Tang-E cried while shaking, “Uh . . . uh . . . uh!!! Uhhhh!!!”
They were sobs .
“It is a joke, a joke . You are much cuter than before, okay?” Hyeonu saw such a Tang-E and hugged him .
Then he met Tang-E’s eyes . Hyeonu had removed his mask, so Tang-E could see himself reflected in Hyeonu’s eyes . Tang-E looked fine . The shape of his red fur seemed stylish in its own way . It didn’t feel like a blemish since the main version was awesome anyway .
“That’s right . I’m cute . That’s right . ” Tang-E quickly regained his composure .
“Yes, you are a bit cute,” Hyeonu affirmed .
***
Hyeonu didn’t log out . He tore the return scroll and moved to Yusma . His first stop was the imperial palace, where the emperor was staying . Hyeonu arrived alone at the place where the monster breathed . The moment he opened the door, the emperor would be waiting . However, Hyeonu didn’t enter and stopped at the door .
‘There is no Clear Mind . . . Pill . ’
So Hyeonu took a potion out of his inventory instead and drank it once before entering the great hall . The potion’s refreshing sensation passed through his throat, and his mind seemed a bit clearer .
“Why are you staying there without coming in?” The monster’s voice could be heard from inside .
Hyeonu practiced smiling several times and barely managed to reply, “Yes, I’m coming in, Your Majesty . ”
Hyeonu moved very carefully without making any footsteps .
The emperor smiled at Hyeonu . “You are completely different from your master in this respect . This is a side I can’t find in him . It is very interesting . ”
Hyeonu bowed and greeted the emperor without saying anything about personal matters . “Sorry for coming all of a sudden . . . ”
The emperor interrupted Hyeonu’s words, “Just tell me why you came . We don’t know each other . Why take so long to speak?”
Hyeonu saw the impatience on the emperor’s face and hurriedly brought out why he came . “In fact, I am able to go back to the East Continent now . ”
“Hmm . . . This is a bit later than I thought . I think it has been a while . ”
“There were conditions other than the contract . Still, I am the first adventurer to gain this authority,” Hyeonu responded to the emperor’s blow with some slight bragging .
“Really? So why don’t you say why you came?”
“I came because I wondered if Your Majesty has anything for me to do? For example, an exchange with the East Continent, or if there is anything you need or want . ”
“You want to run my personal errands?”
“Your Majesty is the empire . I want to know if you need me to do anything to help the empire . ”

The emperor chuckled at Hyeonu’s sly reply and threw a white scroll that was beside the throne . The white scroll flew slowly toward Hyeonu .
“Clever fellow . This type of thing is very similar to the previous situation . Good, take it . ”
Hyeonu stretched out both hands without thinking . “Ugh . . . ”
‘My hands are a bit numb,’ he thought .
It was unknown what joke the emperor was playing, but Hyeonu’s body was now numb . It was only after pulling out his magic power and fighting energy that he could barely reach out to grab the white scroll .
“There is a royal family on the East Continent, right? It is good if they’re royalty . Pass this on to the master of the greatest force and receive an answer . Then I’ll give you the title of earl . You can bring the rest on your own . Ah! If they don’t know the language, do it yourself, be it translating the letter or explaining it with your body . ”
[A quest has been created . ]

Hyeonu was too afraid of the emperor’s words to bring just anything .
‘If you want something, then say it . What is this? It’s not like eating some random thing at Kimbap Heaven . ' [1]
“I understand, Your Majesty . ”
***
After exiting the imperial palace, Hyeonu headed for a workshop in Yusma . It was a place to manufacture items and convert the appearance of items . The reason he came here was simple . It was to change his new mask, Dorma’s Red Blood, to the present child’s mask . Hyeonu ran in front of an empty capsule and inserted Dorma’s Red Blood .
[Please determine the shape you want to convert to . ]
Hyeonu continued moving after seeing the rising message . He depicted the child’s mask that he knew best . The one difference was that it was smiling brighter than before .
[You have insufficient materials . ]
“What?!!!”
