I Stole the Number One Ranker’s Soul - Chapter 117

Episode 118:

Black tech wear and a black lion’s scythe.

This is Seo Ji-han’s combat uniform.

It was a completely different image from the clothes I usually wear.

The daily clothes he wears when he is a ghost are neat cotton t-shirts or soft textured sweaters.

Since a person’s impression is influenced by his or her clothes, I felt that he was soft and harmless thanks to the fashion he had been wearing for coffee advertisements.

Not only the clothes, but also the weak presence of Seo Ji-han in his ghost state also contributed to the impression.

It’s hard to get the impression that he’s a threat against his light, phantom-like presence.

Of course, if you’re not smiling, you might feel a little scary because of your unique cold appearance.

However, Seo Ji-han rarely makes that kind of expression and always smiles lightly whenever he talks to me.

When I first met him, I never imagined that he would smile so easily.

Anyway, what he was wearing right now wasn’t the soft clothes he usually wore.

The body wrapped in a matte black combat uniform exuded a menacing force.

The harness that runs from the shoulders to the chest looks like a safety device that locks away dangerous substances.

Until now, I had never thought that Seo Ji-han was very tall, but now his tall head seemed like a burden.

“How tall is Seo Ji-han?”

“key? 188? I think it was 189. “I don’t know because I haven’t measured it since the pre-enlistment physical examination.”

I suddenly wondered why he was asking such a question, but he answered obediently with a nonchalant expression.

Since I am 168cm, there is only a 20cm difference.

“So, you joined the special forces, right?”

“huh. “Did you know?”

“Because it’s famous.”

Seo Ji-han is a first-generation hunter.

At that time, the media did not conceal information about hunters like it does now, so information about Seo Ji-han, who was the most famous hunter at the time, was widely known.

“If you were a special forces unit, you would have gone through a lot of hardships.”

At my words, Seo Ji-han lightly shrugged his shoulders and smiled.

“not really? It was fun. “Everyone was nice to me.”

I took a close look at Seo Ji-han in front of me.

A 188 cm tall muscular man who has won medals in various youth sports competitions. Proficient in fighting skills.

It’s a profile that anyone would want to be nice to.

Even now, he is a person who can kill at least one person without any hesitation, but it was clear that this was probably the same even before his awakening.

There was a time when I thought about how great it would have been if instead of collecting Evitanis cores, I had fought monsters and become a combat hunter, but after seeing Seo Ji-han, I feel skeptical.

Even if I had attacked a monster back then, would I have been able to awaken into a combat hunter like Seojihan?

Hmm, I guess it was too much.

“By the way, it’s the same outfit as when we attacked Kyrgyzstan.”

At my words, Seo Ji-han looked down at his clothes.

“I always wear it like this when fighting. This is the easiest to move around in.”

What Seo Ji-han is wearing looks like tech wear made of Gore-Tex, but it is actually an equipment item that I returned to him. Of course it’s not Gore-Tex.

‘I guess not?’

That is a class A armor item called the Black Wind Battle Suit.

There is also a set of Black Wind Battle Boots and Black Wind Battle Gloves.

Although the defense power was minimal, wearing three or more of the set components had the effect of increasing agility by 5%.

By the way, even including the lion’s scythe and ring, I only have five equipment items.

I think it’s a bit small, but I’m cautious about asking.

When a kid who can loot S-rank items just by stretching out his hands asks, ‘But Seo Ji-han, don’t you have a few items?’, it sounds like he’s asking ‘Are you a beggar?’

No, you’re too unlucky.

But thankfully, Seo Ji-han opened his mouth first with a bitter expression.

“Originally, I had gloves and a pair of earrings, but I sold them all.”

“why? “Your abilities weren’t very good?”

“No, the Lapis Lazuli Ring of the Apocalypse requires 8 A-grade magic stones. Eundami helped me, but it was a bit difficult. “To make that, I sold almost all the equipment and by-products I got from conquering the Silaghis dungeon.”

For a moment, I thought about the nearly hundred A-grade magic stones piled up in my inventory.

The by-products obtained during night training in the Suwangryu dungeon in Guam were still intact in the inventory.

There are enough F-class magic stones that you can play with by throwing them for water splashes when you are bored.

“I see…”

I felt like I should have made an expression like ‘Wow, that’s amazing!’ at the part about 8 A-grade magic stones, but it didn’t work out. Instead of

acting, I just nodded vaguely.

“But I don’t regret it . Do it. If the strength stat is doubled, it’s a truly fraudulent item.”

“Hmm, that’s amazing.”

Even if your strength is 3 million, if you wear that ring, it becomes 600.

If someone with a high strength ability like Seo Ji-han uses it, it will create tremendous synergy.

“The lapis lazuli eyeball of the evil spirit king Silagis is used as a material, and among the existing items, it is the best boss monster item. “It may be the only one made from by-products.”

In that case, it must be a one-of-a-kind ring in the world.

Oh, that’s why I knew that it was an item that Seo-hoo Ban immediately bought as soon as he saw this ring. While

I was trying to calmly understand it, I suddenly felt strange.

Come to think of it, Seo-ji-han used to be in the market. Didn’t you register the item as a Silagis by-product?

“You said you got one Silagis by-product before, right?”

“huh.”

“I made it into the Lapis Lazuli Ring of the Apocalypse.”

“huh.”

“But around the time I caught Silaghis, I think there was a lot of news about Silagis by-products being registered in the market.”

I remember it clearly.

So there was speculation that Seo Ji-han’s market name was ‘Knife’. In the end, it was true.

“Oh, that? That was a lie. Eundami said it would sell better if I spread the news like that.”

“yes?”

“At that time, no one had yet caught a boss monster, so no one knew that the byproducts given by boss monsters had names.”

Oh, by the way.

The Kyrgyz carapace I looted was not an S-class insectivorous shell, but was named ‘Kyrgyz.’ “

Thanks to this, A-class demon items were sold at a high price as a by-product of Silagis. Honey that only pioneers can suck. Should I say that? If you feel unfair, you should catch the boss and check the item name. Haha.”

Looking at Seo Ji-han, who was smiling refreshingly, I suddenly realized something. The

higher the grade, the fewer monsters there are.

While I was doing special night training every day in Guam and killing a lot of monsters, I only saw about 100 grade A monsters.

So. The supply of by-products of Class A monsters was bound to be low. Moreover, even looting was a probability, so it was common

for most hunters to not even look at it.

Naturally, the number released on the market was extremely small.

So, such a lie must have worked to some extent.

There were none.

The B-grade magic stones I destroyed in Guam were treasures that even the Guam government felt burdened by.

If I used 8 of those precious A-grade magic stones, it would be no exaggeration to say that I had, in fact, scraped together most of the A-grade magic stones that existed in the world at the time. It wasn’t.

Since it also contained S-class by-products, this was already an item that couldn’t be converted to value.

“Hey, Mr. Seo Ji-han.”

There is only one conclusion:

“Huh?”

“Isn’t this Lapis Lazuli Ring of the Apocalypse almost all of Seo Ji-han’s property?”

“There is also a lion’s scythe.”

“That’s not true, I said I sold off all the items I had to pay for the materials for this lapis lazuli ring.”

“huh.”

“Then you gave me almost all of your assets.”

Oh my god, did you just give me such a precious item so readily?

Why did you give

it to me? Oh, it looks like carrying a blanket would be difficult?

Wow, this really makes no sense.

“I was dead so I couldn’t use it anyway. It’s best for people who need things to use them. .”

“No matter what…”

Would I have been able to do that if it were me?

no i can’t He probably tried to take it all with his old money when he went to the afterlife.

“Even if an item is there, it’s not there anymore.”

Hmm, that sounds somewhat familiar.

I also had a similar thought, what was it?

ah. Money is something that comes and goes but doesn’t exist.

I used to say that often once.

This is what I always thought as I watched my paycheck pass through my bank account.

Those words contain the meaning of ‘since it is always not there, even if something happens, it will disappear anyway.’

Did Seo Ji-han always have no items?…

He continued calmly, perhaps knowing that I was feeling sorry for him or not.

“Actually, when I captured the Kyrgyz, I sold out everything I had and bought potions and scrolls. “I was planning to catch the Kyrgyz and retrieve them, but it ended up being a shame.”

So, even though I looted Seo Ji-han’s entire inventory, the list of acquired items was shabby, not poor, but simple.

So I neatly looted all the monsters I caught along the way…

I quickly took off the lapis lazuli ring of the apocalypse and returned it to Seo Ji-han.

Once I found out the story behind this ring, I couldn’t bear to keep it.

“huh? It’s a bit weird to get back something I already gave you…”

“Take it.”

“No….”

“Take it.”

Meanwhile, I took out a bunch of potions and handed them to Seo Ji-han.

This is an S-class strength and agility increasing potion.

“Take this too. Now that you have a body, Seo Ji-han can drink potions!”

How envious Seo Ji-han got whenever I told him that I could permanently increase my stats with an S-class potion.

Now he can proudly enjoy the benefits of this fraudulent item.

“Hmm.”

Seo Ji-han took the potion and looked down at the potion bottle with a subtle expression.

What is this reaction? I thought you would be very happy.

“Actually, I tried drinking it the last time it was given to me, but it said it was an object to which the effect could not be applied. I guess it’s because this is not a real body, but a body made of magic stone energy.”

Seo Ji-han licked his appetite and added, ‘It was a waste.’ He opened his inventory and returned all the potions to me.

He said he had forgotten that the potion he received when rescuing Ban Seo-jin would be returned after materializing again.

“Now, shall we stop talking and call Jirgis?”

that’s right. Now is not the time to be talking like this.

But wait, I’m not going to look for Jirgis…

“You’re calling me?”

He spoke so naturally that I didn’t even know there was anything wrong.

Seo Ji-han nodded at my words as if it was obvious.

“You’re not going to the boss room where Jirgis is?”

Like Kergis and Vargis, the Chrysanthemum boss monsters had the characteristic of having their own huge space.

Of course, this would also apply to Jirgis.

“I don’t have time, so when should I come visit you?” “I have to call you.”

“Do you at least know my cell phone number?”

Seo Ji-han laughed briefly at my words, as if he had heard an interesting joke.

He then twirled the lion’s scythe he was holding and lightly relaxed his body.

Oh, maybe it’s because he’s a combat hunter, so even the simplest movements are different.

“I don’t know the cell phone number, but there is a way to call it.”

Seo Ji-han smiled and raised his scythe.

Then, he condensed the black energy and quickly drew it towards the dungeon wall.

The black energy in the shape of a crescent moon flew from the scythe and instantly shattered the wall that the kings had carefully polished, stitch by stitch.

It was as powerful as heavy equipment used to demolish buildings.

“Mr. Seo Ji-han.”

Despite my calls, Seo Ji-han continued to destroy the dungeon.

And then he says it casually.

“If you keep doing this, it will appear. It’s common sense.”

I could only watch the scene in bewilderment.

Common sense of life taught by Seo Ji-han, who ranks first in today’s rankings.

If you don’t know the contact information when you need to call the landlord, you can knock down the house and the landlord will show up.

Is this common sense necessary?
