It was a ring with a pair of small white wings on it.

[You have acquired Hermes' ring.]

Minhyuk checked the item's information.

[Hermes' Ring]

Class: Unique

Restrictions: Lv10

Durability: 782/1,000

Defensive Power: 52

Special Abilities:

> AGI +15

> Skill Haste

Description: A ring that Hermes accidentally dropped. It has the haste spell attached to it. It seems to be useful for the warrior type.

'Hoo.'

Minhyuk went on to check the information on the skill haste.

(Haste)

Artifact Skill

Level: None

Mana Required: 50

Cooldown: 2 hours

Effects: 1.3 times increase in attack speed for 10 seconds, increase in movement speed.

It was a good enough skill. Worthy enough for its unique class.

A 1.3 times increase in attack speed for 10 seconds.

As far as I know, when using haste, the higher the level the higher the time and increase in speed.

However, this was an artifact skill so it was a given that the level couldn't increase any further.

"Minhyuk-nim, what do we do now..."

Rakku's voice was tinted with anxiety.

"Let's go."

"Yes...?"

"Pork hunting!"

"Just the two of us?"

"Yes, don't worry. I have tried it earlier, the one with the mini ant? They're all easy. It will be alright, since Roy could get out of there safely alone then the sweet python is probably easy too."

"Uhmm..."

"Let's go!"

Minhyuk said that but he suddenly stopped.

"Why didn't he disappear yet?"

"Maybe he hasn't logged out yet? He's probably swearing at us like crazy right now."

"Is that so?"

Minhyuk nodded when he heard that.

Then...

"Eyy!"

He stepped on him with the tip of his big toe then walked away.

***

Team Leader Park was very shocked.

"Wow, this user. Except for his food consumption, isn't he too perfect?"

He couldn't help but hold his head as he watched User Minhyuk on the monitor.

He has the ability to read the flow and calmly make his decisions, plus his precise control when he attacks.

"Actually, Puppeteer Roy's strength is around Lv20..."

Lee Minhwa mumbled as Team Leader Parked said...

"Show me User Minhyuk's stats window."

"Yes!"

(Minhyuk)

"......"

"......"

The two of them remained silent for a moment.

Team Leader Park scratched his head.

"...What did he do to achieve stats like that while being a classless Lv10..."

"He ate well and exercised diligently."

"......"

"That was what this user said the last time."

"I don't have to ask again because he was really true to his words..."

Team Leader Park wanted to understand him but his words were lost.

Then he said...

"However, it's still too early for User Minhyuk to relax."

"That's right."

Lee Minhwa nodded her head.

"We will now see the full power of the Puppeteer. Before, he had to move like a spear wielder."

The Puppeteer was special. It was considered to be one of the strongest secret classes.

"Ppappa, ppalgan mat~!" (R, red flavor~!)

"......"

"Gunggeumhae, honey!" (curious, honey!)

"......?"

"Kkaemulmyeon jeomjeom nogadeun doksagwa geu mat!" (The taste of poisonous apple that melts when you bite more!) [1]

He looked at the apple as if he was in love with it.

The apple was a shocking red. It's surface was smooth with no bruise in sight.

Minhyuk opened his mouth wide and took a bite.

Crunch!

It was the light, cheerful sound of biting a juicy apple.

The sweet apple juice filled every corner of his mouth. He could hear the crunch in his every bite.

Crunch, crunch, crunch.

His mouth was filled with a refreshing sweetness.

[You have eaten a poisonous apple.]

[Your experience will drop by 5%.]

"Yeah, it's delicious if it's zero calories~"

"......"

Rakku really did not know what to say, she was left utterly speechless.

There are a lot of dishes I can cook that use apples.

I can make jam and spread it on bread or I can just grind it and drink it.

In addition, it is a fruit that is both very delicious and extremely healthy. It can help you maintain healthy teeth and prevent diseases like constipation and diabetes.

Minhyuk, who gnawed on the apple until only its pit was left, smiled happily.

"Kyaa, this flavor is the reason why I eat apples."

Minhyuk then looked at Rakku.

"Would you like to try one too, Nim? Well, this is just like when we're hunting together, it's totally fine!"

"...No, thank you."

Her expression screamed 'Who the hell is this guy?'

And Roy, who was on Minhyuk's shoulder, was very bewildered.

'T, this guy is crazy!'

However, he soon returned to being calm.

'Hoo, hoo, No. It was probably because he was just curious. Which crazy bastard will sacrifice 5% of their experience continuously just to eat apples?'

There was no guarantee but Minhyuk would probably stop picking the apples on the sweet python's head.

If he doesn't touch it, then I will be able to fill the fulfillment bar.

"Hooowoo! It's an apple, apple!"

However, Roy's dream was shattered.

Minhyuk easily dealt with all of the sweet pythons that appeared. He continued to hunt sweet pythons as he moved forward.

"Waah, so happy..."

Minhyuk smiled happily as he, once again, ate another apple.

Roy shouted at him.

'Shit, this is an apple-crazy bastard! What a crazy bastard, he's the only one who would eat this experience-draining apple just because it's delicious. Wow. I have never seen a guy like this in my life before!'

However, Minhyuk just picked his ears.

'Who's insulting me?'

Rakku opened her mouth and talked.

"W, what in the world is wrong with you... That was your hard-earned experience points..."

"Nim."

Minhyuk spoke to Rakku in a serious tone.

"Yes?"

"Have you tried eating 5,000 cherry tomatoes every day?"

"Are you talking about elephants?"

"......"

"?"

"Don't tell me to stop if you haven't tried it yet. If you eat 5,000 of those everyday then you will be like me."

For no reason at all, Minhyuk felt a tingling at the tip of his nose.

15 minutes later.

'Ugh, waaaaaaaaaah! This is impossible!'

Roy started screaming again.

The ghost puppetry's fulfillment bar should be completed within 30 minutes. Otherwise, he would receive twice the amount of penalty. This was the side effect of ghost puppetry.

At that moment...

Fwoosh

Roy's transparent figure slowly disappeared.

Minhyuk was completely oblivious, he just kept on picking his apples.

He continued to move forward with Rakku and finally made it to the end. They have finally arrived in front of the boss room.

'Porky, just wait a bit. Hyung is coming.'

Minhyuk's expression grew solemn.

There was a thick iron door in front of him. If he pushed this iron door then he would find it.

Creaaaak—

A loud noise accompanied the opening of the iron door.

And finally...

Bang!

Once the door was completely opened, Minhyuk tightened his grip on Valan.
