Chapter 2660 – 2660. Daily Quest

We arrived in the city, checked into a hotel, and rested. Naturally, we had a round of sex and then lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

“What are you going to do now?” I asked, fondling Hazel’s breasts.

“…About what?”

“You killed the progenitor vampire, Aiden. You achieved that goal. Are you going to continue as a vampire hunter?”

“I won’t stop hunting vampires. It’s a family business, after all. Well, it’s just me now, since I’m the only one left in the family. And I have a promise with the World Hunter Association, so I have to keep hunting vampires. If you don’t keep killing them, they’ll multiply again before you know it.”

“Like mosquitoes?”

“Yeah, like mosquitoes. But I don’t plan to focus solely on vampire hunting. I’m going to try dungeon raids and monster hunting too. What about you? You’re not going to leave me and go back to Korea, are you? I want you to stay with me.”

Hazel’s straightforward confession made my hand pause for a moment. But then, my hand resumed fondling her breasts. I didn’t forget to pinch and roll her pink nipples between my fingers.

“I have to go back to Korea. If you want to be with me, you come to Korea. You don’t have any family in America.”

“…Wow. What a trashy thing to say. Get your hands off my chest, you jerk!”

Hazel flared up. I pulled her into a hug, as if to pounce on her. She hesitated, unsure of what to do in my arms. I whispered to her.

“Even if we part ways right now, it doesn’t mean we’ll never see each other again. You can come to see me, or I can come to see you. I even have a way to meet you in a second if I want to. Distance is no problem.”

A space-time scroll. I could give it to my woman anytime.

“…My base is in America. It’s hard for me to leave America, just like it’s hard for you to leave Korea. …But you do love me, right?”

“Of course, Hazel. You’re my woman.”

“You only love me, right?”

“……”

“Ah, yeah. I knew it. You womanizing bastard!”

“Hazel, there’s a saying, ‘Heroes love beauty.’ It’s natural for heroes to have women.”

“You’re not even trying to hide it anymore? Do you think that kind of talk works in this day and age?!”

“Why wouldn’t it work? Isn’t there polygamy in some Islamic countries? And honestly, with my abilities, it’s not a problem at all.”

“That’s…”

Hazel couldn’t immediately refute it and her face contorted.

S-class hunters. Those with power comparable to disasters. If they wanted polygamy? Any country would accept it. In fact, there was a case in the US where an S-class hunter openly practiced bigamy. Did that S-class hunter get legally punished? There were rumors of lawsuits, but they were doing very well now.

‘If you become an S-class hunter, you can bully the country to some extent.’

Still, Hazel’s expression wasn’t good.

‘In this case, the only way is to make her submit with my dick.’

I’ll make her realize she can’t escape me with my dick. I fucked Hazel until she passed out.

And then it became midnight.

[Day 7 Quest
Listen to Park Suho’s concerns.
Quest Success Reward: 100 Points]

‘Why Park Suho all of a sudden?’

I frowned, then quickly relaxed.

‘I just have to listen, right? I don’t have to solve his problems? Then it’s fine. I’ll contact him tomorrow morning… no, wait. What time is it in Korea right now?’

I checked my smartphone. Arizona was 16 hours behind Korea. That meant it was 4 PM in Korea right now.

‘Come to think of it, does this quest apply the time based on Korea when I go there?’

The time on my smartphone caught my eye. I hadn’t thought much about it before, but my smartphone automatically changed the time based on where I was. It was the same when I was in other worlds, so it wasn’t difficult to check the local time.

‘Is this some kind of extra function of the Yuhee Life app?’

Anyway, I sent a text message to Park Suho. I didn’t want to talk to him directly.

Seong Yujin: Suho, are you free tonight? Let’s meet up for dinner after a long time.

Park Suho: Sounds good. How about samgyeopsal at 6?

Seong Yujin: Sure

He replied immediately. I wondered if Park Suho was in the Tattoo World right now.

‘I can go to Korea for a bit and then persuade Hazel.’

Since I had a space-time scroll, I had plenty of time. I fondled the butt of the unconscious Hazel, preparing to thrust my dick into her. I planned to fuck her as soon as she woke up.

• • •

I met Park Suho at the samgyeopsal restaurant. It was the first time we had met in a while, but Park Suho’s expression wasn’t good. We shared a few drinks with the samgyeopsal.

“Suho, do you have any worries?”

“Ah. Was it obvious? It’s about the Tattoo World. You know Veroprin, right? The city I manage. Suddenly, a plague started there. It started a week ago, and already there are 600 infected people. 80 people have died. It’s driving me crazy.”

“A plague? You just need to manage it well. Boil the water and clean the city well.”

“Yeah. I thought it would be enough if I just did that. I even spent money to buy enough disinfectant for 200,000 people from the mart. But it didn’t work very well.”

“What? Has the population of Veroprin increased to 200,000?”

“You told me not to be too nice to the citizens last time, so I decided to follow the law… Thanks to that, it became known as a fair city, and people gathered.”

“Did you make that law?”

“Yes. It’s basically a copy of Korean law.”

The Tattoo World was a medieval fantasy world. In such a world, modern Korean law? It would look very easy.

“Don’t tell me the tax rate is still 20%?”

“No. I raised the tax rate to 35%.”

Still, the tax rate was low. There was a reason why citizens were quickly gathering in Park Suho’s city.

“What kind of plague is it? The Black Death?”

“It’s a disease that doesn’t exist on Earth. The skin turns red, and eventually, the body explodes and dies. In that world, it’s called the Blood Explosion Disease.”

“The body explodes? If I only heard about it, I’d believe it was a curse, not a plague.”

“If it were a curse, I wouldn’t be so worried. The priests could just step in and take care of it. But it’s a plague, so even the priests are careful not to get infected, which is a headache. There are no modern medicines that can help… Sigh. Is there any way?”

Why is he worried about something like this? If you gather the patients with the plague in one place and burn them to death, wouldn’t that solve it? Germs are germs. They’ll be burned if you burn them.

‘If I say that, he’ll think I’m a psychopath.’

“Hmm. Isolating them and treating them separately would be the best option. Sorry, I’m not much help.”

“Sigh. I guess there’s no other way.”

Park Suho downed a shot of soju. I quietly checked my smartphone.

[Day 7 Quest Completed.]

[You have acquired 100 points as a reward for completing the Day 7 Quest.]

[You have completed Daily Quests x 7.]

[You have acquired a Game Item Box as a reward for completing the quest.]

The quest reward automatically went into my inventory. I wanted to take it out and check it right away, but… Park Suho was in front of me.

“Um, Yujin hyung. This is a bit embarrassing to say, but… can I borrow some money again?”

“Money? You’re saying you don’t have money? Aren’t you making good money these days?”

Park Suho was officially a B-class hunter, and in terms of skill, he was an A-class. There was no way Park Suho wouldn’t be making money.

“The plague suddenly broke out. It’s not easy to get disinfectant for 200,000 people, and I also have to buy medicine. I don’t know what medicine will help, but I have to try everything. I can’t just let them die.”

“Don’t potions work?”

“Of course, potions are very effective. There’s a report that a rich person with the plague had their symptoms significantly improved with a potion. The problem is that potions are too expensive.”

That was true.

The highest-grade recovery potion costs over 1 billion won, and the lower-grade recovery potion, which can’t treat deep wounds, costs 13 million won. Even if you have enough money, it’s a product managed by the Hunter Association, so it’s difficult to obtain in large quantities. To get it without any trouble, you have to pay more money to a black market dealer.

‘I don’t have to worry about that. I can get potions from other worlds. I also have a potion copier.’

I had an abundance of recovery potions, but I had no intention of giving any to Park Suho.

If my territory’s people were infected with the plague, I would just burn them to death, but providing potions for free for someone else’s territory’s people? I wouldn’t do that even if I had a gun to my head.

“You’ve been through a lot. I’ll lend you the money. Don’t worry about the interest. Aren’t we close? I won’t charge you interest.”

“Ugh. Thank you, hyung. I’ll pay you back everything at once, including what I borrowed before!”

I lent Park Suho money again, talked for a while, and then we parted ways.

As soon as I got home, I took out the ‘Game Item Box’ from my inventory. Park Suho was completely gone from my mind.

[Game Item Box
You can obtain one item from the game.
Price: –
※Caution
Any item from the game can appear.]

A square box with a question mark drawn on it.

I immediately opened the box. As soon as I opened the box, rainbow light burst out.

“Let’s goooo!”

The box disappeared.

[You have opened the Game Item Box.]

[You have acquired the Last Mage’s Master Rune.]

An item was given to my inventory. If that was the case, I didn’t know why they made me open the box myself. Of course, it was a minor thing compared to the result.

‘The Last Mage’s Master Rune… that’s the ending reward item.’

Last Mage was a roguelike single-player game where you played a mage character.

It was a game released about 10 years ago and was highly praised at the time.

The Master Rune was the game’s ending reward. It was an item that could only be obtained by seeing the ending each time in a roguelike game. In other words, a cheat item.

[Master Rune
A rune imbued with mysterious power.
You can choose one of the following: Fire, Wind, Lightning, Water, Ice, Light, Darkness, Slaughter, Defense, or Support. You will acquire skills and effects with the chosen attribute.
Price: 3,000,000 Points
※Caution
The effects have changed due to the influence of the Yuhee Life app.
The attribute selection cannot be reversed. Choose carefully.]

A stone with a blue rune drawn on it came out of my inventory.

‘First of all, not fire. Fire is a sub-attribute of lightning.’

It wasn’t because I controlled lightning. That’s just common sense. Fire is a sub-attribute of lightning. Fire exists because there is lightning.

‘The original game is a roguelike game, so the effects of the Master Rune vary greatly, which is a bit concerning. It could turn into a rune with a trash effect like Lightning Strike.’

I pondered with a serious expression.

‘Ice is a bit tempting… but a man only digs one well.’

[You have chosen Lightning as the attribute of the Master Rune.]

[The Master Rune transforms into the Lightning Master Rune.]

[The Lightning Master Rune is bound to you.]

[The Lightning Master Rune’s effects are activated even when it is in your inventory.]

Zap!

Blue lightning crackled from the Master Rune.

I checked the information of the Lightning Master Rune. Since it was an item not sold in the random draw, I appraised it with my inventory ability.
