I Returned as an FFF-Class Witch Doctor - Chapter 8
Episode 8
“Come on…. This bastard is here again.”
“hello. brother.”
When Jinseong opened the door, the man wrinkled his forehead.
It was a familiar face.
Minjun Do. 28 years old.
It was a convenience store manager who worked 1 minute away from Jinseong’s room.
“Baekjubu 3-layer meat… I think I ate this the other day. Is there anything new coming in?”
“Are you new? An idol lunch box or something came in. Did you eat that?”
“Can’t you see?”
“There you are.”
As Jinseong looked around, Minjun pointed to the bento corner.
He was indeed a professional convenience store manager.
After visiting so many times, I naturally opened up my face.
Jin-seong lived on his own and visited Min-jun’s convenience store almost every day, and Min-jun was puzzled to see that Jin-seong’s outfit changed every time he came.
At first, I thought there were all these guys.
The guy who showed up wearing work boots and a hard hat showed up the next day in a meat restaurant uniform and the cafe skirt the next day.
「Boss.」
「…yes?」
「I read that you are looking for a night part-timer. Did you save them?”
And the reason they were able to get closer was after Jin-seong took the position of a night part-timer, and at that time, Jin-seong was willing to work two jobs and three jobs for his family.
It was because he worked at night, reducing sleep based on his innate physical and physical abilities.
“This is also a god. Is this delicious?”
“I don’t even know, bastard.”
Minjun shook his head as he watched the ready-to-eat food section being swept away.
It was an amount that seemed to come from shopping at a mart.
Lunchbox Sandwich Hot Bar Soda Ramen Sausage Hamburger Chicken Pudding.
Jin-seong bought enough food to last for three days, and Min-joon didn’t understand Jin-seong.
It would have been better to have it delivered.
“What do you like about convenience store food? You get sick after that.”
“What can I do? i have to be busy You know. Delivery is expensive because of the minimum order cost.”
“Either that or that…”
Jin-seong said, Min-joon replied while taking a picture of the barcode of the lunchbox.
It was not wrong.
Even when he was working part-time at a convenience store, Jinseong was always busy, and Minjun wondered if Jinseong was a machine.
It was fortunate if it was fortunate that sometimes my face was reflected like this.
“uh? Don’t you accept your card?”
“Put it in, dude. How much do you do this?”
Jinseong widened his eyes as he saw Minjun pick out his card.
It wasn’t a penny or two.
Total 78850 won.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that this was enough to rob a corner of a convenience store.
“Oh dear. Because there really is no need for that.”
“I’ll buy you a drink later.”
“That’s great.”
When Min-joon pressed on, Jin-seong scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.
Payment had already been made.
From putting all the food in a plastic bag to turning on the tablet PC in a good place.
Jin-seong had no choice but to quietly raise his thumb at Min-joon’s hand movements, which finished the whole process in an instant.
It was the dignity of being a convenience store manager for 3 years.
“What are you looking at?”
“Oh this? Game room.”
“Game room?”
“It’s crazy these days.”
When Jinseong asked, Minjun pointed to the tablet PC and said,
was
The main program of the game channel GGN.
As expected, the two casters were exchanging comments with each other.
It was a face that even Jinseong knew.
– E-ranking news that collects the e-sports news of the week! The long-awaited number one!
– This is the news of the retirement of Jeong Yoo-min, famous as the youngest professional gamer in the storm of time and space!
– wow! Isn’t Jung Yoo-min the star player of the space-time storm?
– you’re right! He is a monster-like player who recorded a 77.6% win rate during his 3-year career!!
– Why did such a player announce his retirement?
– Games with the keyboard are no longer interesting! Now it’s virtual reality! I think it’s because of what you said! This is the news that Jung Yoo-min is very excited about in the future!
“Jung…Yoomin…?”
Jinseong’s head turned back as if possessed.
It was a familiar face.
A face you will never forget.
A face never to be forgotten.
In the screen, the image of Yoo-min, who is young but known to him, was flowing out, and Jin-seong felt his fists energize without even realizing it.
It was undoubtedly Jung Yoo-min.
“why? Do you know me too?”
“Oh, well… you’re famous.”
“right? The son of a large business owner family. Game is not good. tall. You look good. If you don’t know him, he’s a spy.”
At Jinsung’s words, Minjun turned his head and said.
It was a word that could tell Yu-min’s location at a glance.
A man who can be said to be a top-notch celebrity by himself, no more than a tolerable celebrity.
Jin-seong opened the convenience store door leaving Min-jun behind while watching the highlight scene of Yoo-min flowing from GGN.
“Brother, I will go. I’m rooting for you.”
“uh? okay. You take it easy too.”
With my daughter!
Soon, the convenience store door closed.
* * *
[Notification: Level up!]
[Notification: Level 15 achieved!]
“Whoa.”
Damian wiped away the sweat.
It was crazy hunting speed.
As a result of eating a meal with the convenience store food Min-jun bought, entering the capsule and accessing it as if possessed by something.
Damian was able to raise his level by 5 in half a day and also collect quite a few material items.
It was after hearing the news of Yumin’s retirement.
Since he announced his retirement, it’s only a matter of time before he starts AC.
If Yumin, who had wealth and honor, started to play the game, it was certain that any ranker would catch up in an instant.
“It must be around here.”
Damian looked around and narrowed his eyes. It was the center of Whispering Island.
A place where it is not easy to move with thick trees and rough terrain that is incomparable to the back mountain where he first fell.
And Damian climbed a rock as if climbing, feeling that his dwelling place was deeper than he thought.
[Whispering Island Predator]
There is a very troublesome guy living on this island. He’s more terrifying than mutant chickens. I believe you can defeat him.
Category: Epic
Description: Defeat the mutant wild boar < Wild Boar > and collect the hides.
Progress: 0% (01)
Reward: Elmoore’s Recommendation
Note: Wild Boars are very powerful, so it is recommended to form a party.
It was the residence of < Wild Bore >.
‘I don’t have much time.’
Damian bit his lip as he looked at the time in the system window.
It was 6:37 in the morning.
If it was a normal game, it would have been time to sleep in the middle of the day, but this is something that cannot happen in AC, which is enjoyed by people all over the world.
Besides, as the Wild Boar was the last quest of Chief Elmoore, there were plenty of people who wanted to catch it.
It was the reason Damian was nervous.
‘Wild bore’s regeneration time is on the hour. If you don’t find the Wild Boar’s residence by then, you will miss it unconditionally.’
Damian moved to the depths of the forest and was lost in thought.
It was because of the wildboar’s habit.
A huge wild boar that descends from the center of the whispering island every month.
As Damian knew, beginner users were waiting for him to come down from the mountain.
When it raided a village, it was common for everyone to party and hunt.
It was because I didn’t know where the regen would be.
The wild bore appeared in the west and then in the east, and such novelty made it difficult for beginner players to deal with it.
Only he knew that all of this was possible because the Wild Boar’s residence was located in the center of the island.
‘I have to catch it first before it leaks the other way.’
Damian stepped down the rock. Suddenly, the terrain had changed.
A valley so dark that one wonders if there is such a place in the center of the island.
Damian knew where he was going to regenerate, and he had no intention of waiting like the others.
It was a record of his 10th year of life.
If you knew exactly where it was, you could have killed it as soon as it appeared.
“Skill window.”
Tring!
And Damien opened the skill window.

Attribute: Curse
Description: Casts a curse on a target by consuming an item. Every time you poke a doll, it deals magic damage equal to 1% of the target’s HP.
When casting, other skills cannot be used.
“Hmm.”
Damian rubbed his chin while examining the skills he had learned.
These were unlocked skills after level 10.
< Shooting a stinger > mastered while hunting hens and roosters, and four skills learned by investing 1 point each.
As a profession with max magic power, the witch doctor had many special skills, and Damian had to worry about it for a while.
It was because there was nothing that could be used as a main skill.
‘At first, all the swear words almost came out.’
Damian clicked his tongue as he remembered right after the skill was unlocked.
It was natural.
Unlike general classes that use a few attack skills to < deal with >, Witch Doctors are mostly focused on buffs and debuffs.
Or, there were many restrictions on the use of skills to the extent that there were skills that could be used only by consuming items.
It was said that the deal cycle structure was like crap.
The fact that there was only one attack skill with no special cost meant that the deal loss was severe.
Considering the fact that all sorts of control and physical skills were required to fill that gap, witch doctor was a hardcore job in many ways to be a solo player.
But…
“This also depends on the person who uses it.”
Tring!
Damian scratched his chin while looking at his skill list.
It was literally.
No matter how skillful it is, the AC has always produced one or two non-mainstream rankers, and among them, really ridiculous monsters would pop out.
This was because of the specific nature of the job.
At first glance, a job with powerful skills seemed strong, but it was much stronger to use skills by linking various effects than a job that simply poured out attack skills.
“This is enough.”
Back!
So, it was the confidence derived from the characteristics of a witch doctor that Damian thought he would be able to catch the Wild Boar with his own power.
Even though it was a crazy job focused on max magic power, a Wild Boar was not an impossible opponent for Damian, who had gone through everything from prenatal battles to dogfights.
“I can’t even play the party anyway…”
Damian looked up at the sky.
It was all green.
Sky over a valley covered with lush trees and bushes.
Although he couldn’t party due to his atrocious tendencies, instead of being frustrated by such restrictions, Damian thought it was a good thing.
In fact, I was thinking it would be easier that way.
I don’t know if I know it, but I’m alone and I’m going to have a good time with all the deceased people.
The idea that it is far better to use 100% of one’s abilities than to throw a party with useless gossips.
And judging from his long gaming career, that wasn’t entirely false.
Sometimes it is because there are times when working alone is much more efficient than when there are many people.
‘Wild Bore’s physical strength is about 5000. Considering his defense, it’s obvious that even the damage won’t be nailed down. But…’
Damian, remembering the Wild Boar’s resources, headed into the valley.
It was a familiar landscape.
A rocky valley full of flowing valley water and moss.
And Damian saw a wide open space appearing from between the rocks.
“…found.”
It was his dwelling place.
