Auto Hunting With My Clones - Chapter 22
Trust (2)
“Uh Agent. I got that new skill.”
“really? What skill is it?”
“It’s called marksmanship, but I’ll check it out. wait a minute.”
Sang-woo called up the status window.
───────────────

“I checked and it’s a passive skill that compensates for shooting.”
“Oh- marksmanship! That’s a good skill. Shooting is always useful. And among hunters, if you want to shoot a little, it is also a national skill that you have.”
“is that so? That’s good.”
Sangwoo is still an F-class hunter.
Even though the alter ego has defeated the E-class monster, Fishman, even so, it is just a ‘cheer’ with less than 1 ability to deal with the highest E-class.
For these low-level hunters, unless they have special skills, firearms are the best weapon and means of defense.
“Yeah, you did well. And marksmanship, as far as I know, opens up more features as the skill level rises. I heard that bullets can be charged with magical power to attack.”
“Are you using magic? oh my god. Then you have to work hard to raise your skill level. From now on, all hunting should be carried out only with shooting.”
“That’s good too, but it’s what most hunters who have difficulty raising their skill level choose, so I don’t think you need to go all-in on marksmanship. If you focus on marksmanship, you will become a ranged dealer. Then, the higher the rank, the harder it will be to hunt unless you are in a party. So it’s important to level up your skills evenly. After all, since you have an alter ego, raising your skill proficiency will be a million times easier than others.”
Sang-woo nodded at Kang Jun-mo’s reasonable words.
‘that’s right. After all, the first thing I made up my mind after obtaining the clone technique was to have the best specs among the Awakened.’
That’s why I’ve been training to raise all my abilities evenly.
Of course, by rolling clones.
“And the ransom is high for a hunter who does everything by himself, whether it be a dildo or a tang. So please work harder, Hunter.”
Junmo Kang grinned with a meaningful smile.
‘what? That smile that predicts the difficulties ahead.’
Sang-woo was somewhat spooked.

Korea’s No. 1 guild Hyeseong Guild office building.
In a dark office with no one after work, a single monitor was shining alone.
The man reflected in the bluish light of the monitor was Shin Jin-wook, the leader of the Hyeseong Guild’s Attack Team 1.
He was opening an email.

The e-mail was an information file about domestic hunters that Shin Jin-wook had purchased and periodically received from an official of the Hunter Association.
It could be done through an information company, but the quality was different from the data obtained directly through the Hunter Association, so I was receiving it directly.
‘E-mail is not in my name, but just in case.’
Shin Jin-wook downloaded the file and deleted the e-mail with his familiar hand movements.
and opened files.
It contained the personal information of all people with hunter licenses in Korea and the data that was written about the skills they registered.
Millions of registered hunters alone.
‘Except for those who have already signed contracts… Except for some small fish…’
Shin Jin-wook filtered and rearranged the data several times.
Then, a list of F-class hunters with special skills appeared on the screen.
“Let’s see if there are any guys worth recruiting.”
Yes.
Shin Jin-wook was pulling out the list of scouts right now.
Because he obtained information through an illegal route, he couldn’t have the Comet Guild scout team do it, and he had been doing it himself for several years.
Of course, it was also because of Shin Jin-wook’s tendency to unleash his directness when he had to do his own work.
‘Summoning Bats Keratinized Fluid… It’s all rubbish. Pass… this also pass…’
It was when he was filtering out Hunters with the skills he had for a long time.

Name: Jeong Sang-woo
Age: 21 Years old
Rating: F
Skill: clone magic
───────────────
There was information about Sang-woo there .
‘… Clone magic?’
Shin Jin-wook is interested for a while.
He had seen a Hunter using cloning techniques before.
‘… I think it was on TV. It must have been splendid.’
The Hunter had the skill to summon and deal with illusions that looked just like him.
It was a spectacular skill to summon dozens of illusions and form a group.
‘However, there is no power. Pass this too.’
When he remembered that the actual power was 0, Shin Jin-wook passed it on to the next.
So Sang-woo was forgotten.

Following Kang Jun-mo’s advice, Sang-woo made a schedule for the training and hunting of his clones.
───────────────
*07:00~11:59
Sangwoo: Wake up. Resummoning the alter ego (skill training for alter ego).
Resummoned alter ego: self-harm for regeneration training. Afterwards, exercise at the gym near Sangwoo’s house.
The rest of the alter ego: self-harm for regeneration training. After that, go to the gym and do martial arts training
*12:00~00:00
Sangwoo: At 8:00 PM, go to Mana Breath Academy. Familiar skill training when bored.
Alteros: Kang Jun-mo picks them up and sends them to hunt.
*00:00~07:00
Sangwoo: Deep
sleep Alternates: Training for skill acquisition (hammer hitting running)
───────────────
Schedule with a certain degree of structure.
Until then, I had my alter ego work out for a few hours, and then I did something else, and then when I remembered it, I gave it another training, but now it was a system.
Kang Jun-mo wanted Sang-woo to train as well, but Sang-woo adamantly refused.
“If you train together, the growth rate will be amazing.”
“That’s a bit… the alter egos will take over.”
When awakening, Sang-woo’s laziness to the extent that he can develop a clone-in-the-middle skill will disappear in an instant.
Even so, Kang Jun-mo seemed not to give up.
Now that the schedule is set, the order has become very simple.
It was because I just had to wake up in the morning and say to my alter egos, ‘Repeat the schedule you did yesterday’.
Then the clones took care of themselves and repeated yesterday’s routine.
Of course, there were occasional problems, but when that happened, Kang Jun-mo contacted me right away and I had to slightly revise the order each time.
So, since there is no need to move the alter ego around, Sang-woo has had less work to do lately.
Excluding college life, I had a lot of free time.
Sangwoo spent most of his free time playing.
Since I don’t play games these days, it was a small hobby to enjoy meeting friends, social media or community activities, mana breathing, or experiencing (?) hunting clones with familiar skills.
“hey! mid! Bring the gang!”
“I’ll just eat this, you bastard. wait.”
“No, if you’re going to play RPG, hit another world.”
“Yeah~ I can’t hear you~”
Sang-woo was having fun playing games with Kyung-do and his friends.
As the sun went down, Sang-woo left the PC room and entered a nearby restaurant with his friends.
While I was waiting for my meal, Kyung-do suddenly said a word.
“Shark, haven’t you been studying lately?”
“I? is it?”
“uh. When I look at you, I always giggle with that slut on the phone or just sleep.”
Sang-woo looked back on his life these days.
1. Waking up in the morning, lounging around, resummoning the alter ego, giving a few orders, and walking around on campus in time for class.
2. While listening to class, if Ha-yeon calls during break time, she replies and plays. When Ha-yeon goes back to study, she takes some classes and uses her familiar skill to briefly see what her alter egos are doing.
3. I go to eat at lunchtime.
4. When classes are empty, go to PC rooms or karaoke rooms.
5. After class that day, on days when Ha-yeon is not tutoring, she hangs out with her friends or drinks.
Sangwoo quietly nodded his head with his hand on his chin.
“Um… I’m sure I’ve been a bit lazy lately.”
“a little? squeaking? freeze to death I got terribly lazy. You lazy bastard.”
“that’s right. Shark, do some study. What are you going to do with your grades later?”
The topic of grades that college students fear came up, but Sang-woo was not impressed anymore.
because? It was because I was already making a lot of money while working as a hunter.
“All you have to do is graduate after getting a good grade or something.”
“Eh? Are you not a programmer?”
“uh. i didn’t say Actually, I am a Hunter.”
Sang-woo’s sudden confession.
At those words, silence fell in the restaurant.
and after a while
“Gill. If you are a hunter, then I am an S-class hunter.”
“I am a dragon.”
“I am the Jade Emperor.”
“Sick.”
no one believed
Sangwoo laughed.
Then he shrugged and replied.
“Believe it or not. This older brother is going to be solid in the future, you bastards.”
“Iyol~ Show me your confidence.”
“It’s clear that the taste buds are gone. How long has Nurse Kim not taken medicine for this patient?”
“A week has passed. doctor.”
They were loyal (?) friends who never trusted each other.
We ate all the food while laughing and talking like that, and Sang-woo did the calculation.
Then, the friends who parted ways in front of the restaurant.
Gyeong-do and Sang-woo were heading to the same house, so the two of them were going back to their rooms.
It was then that the governor opened his mouth.
“Hey, since when have you been active?”
“hmm? what?”
“Hunter.”
Gyeongdo seemed to believe Sangwoo’s words.
“Oh, it’s been over a month now. Not too long ago.”
“What grade are you?”
“Everything is the same when you first register. It’s F grade. But do you believe me?”
Then, Kyung-do put his arm on Sang-woo’s shoulder and said.
“hey. When you lie, your eyes always look up to the left. How many years has this older brother known you, do you not know if it is a lie or the truth?”
“Oh~ It’s a little touching, isn’t it?”
“I’m sorry. And lately, you’ve been paying for all your meals, but I’ve noticed. Did you make some money?”
“Hehe, can I show you? wait.”
Sang-woo excitedly opened his smartphone and launched the banking application.
[Balance: 27516830 won]
The balance is a whopping 27 million won.
Not too long ago, the balance of the barrel was 21 million won, but the remaining 6 million won was added to the remaining 50 million won when I bought the Familiar skill in 3-month installments, and the balance increased.
Because they had agreed to preemptively exclude the amount of advance payment to Kang Jun-mo from the settlement, they hadn’t received any settlement money lately, and even though they had spent a lot of money (buying food or alcohol from time to time was a waste of money from Sang-woo’s point of view), rather, the money had increased.
Sang-woo showed off his smartphone by holding it out to Gyeong-do.
“Tada~ There are two thousand seven hundred. Are you envious?”
“… Thirty million won…? What is this?”
“hmm? What three thousand?”
Sang-woo looked at his smartphone again at Gyeong-do’s words.
A new notification pop-up appeared on the smartphone.
