The only thing that came out of his mouth was admiration. Ming Hu checked the options on his current pair of chilling screaming knuckles.

What’s making your knuckles scream? – Mutuga Laver
Is it because it’s a few tiers higher and unique? Despite the fact that Chilling Scream Knuckles’ physical damage is low, Gauntlets of Strike’s physical damage is more than four times that of Chilling Scream Knuckles.
“How much?”
Ming Hu held the gauntlet in his hand and looked at Tilto, but when he heard the price, he couldn’t help but loosen his grip on the gauntlet.
“Five thousand gold.”
“… 5,000 gold?”
“Right. Five thousand gold.”
“…”
At first he thought he had misheard, so he asked again, but he had not. Ming Hu dropped the gauntlet in his hand at the mention of five thousand gold.
‘5,000 gold for 50 million…’
5,000 gold was a whopping $50,000 in cash. Of course, I didn’t have enough gold, but I couldn’t afford to spend $50 million on weapons.
“…”
Ming Hu looked wistfully at the gauntlet he had set down, then back at Tilto.
“I’ll come back and buy it next time.”
Sigh
After speaking, Ming Hu turned back to look at the equipment on display. The only weapon better than the Screaming Knuckles here was the Strike Gauntlet, and the Strike Gauntlet was unaffordable. Then there was no need to look at any more weapons. Ming Hu walked over to where the armor was displayed and began to look at it.
“Let’s start with the gloves.”
It started with gloves, but Ming Hu soon found himself frowning as he looked through them. Every single glove that looked good had a restriction. The only ones he could wear were those that had mana in their current state.
“What about the others?”
Somehow, it seemed that the others would be the same. Ming Hu eventually walked back to where the weapons were displayed.
“As soon as I can afford it, I’ll buy a sword.”
He had about 950 gold left in his inventory. After checking his gold, Ming Hu quickly began to check the sword options, choosing which one to purchase.
Swoosh swoosh
Since he couldn’t move 950 gold worth of swords at once, Ming Hu moved them over the counter several times.
“850 gold to date.”
After hearing the prices of the swords that have been brought to the counter so far, Ming Hu realizes that there are only a few swords left for him to purchase.
“That’s still a lot…”
Arriving at the swords’ display, Ming Hu muttered to himself as he looked at them. Despite the dozens of swords on the counter, there were still many more on display. Ming Hu looked at the swords on display and soon picked up four swords and carried them to the counter.
“930 gold.”
When he reached the counter with four sacks, Tilto opened his mouth to speak. After hearing the price, Ming Hu hesitated for a moment. Whether to buy another sack or just these.
“If I buy another one, I’ll run out of money.
“Here it is.”
Ming Hu hesitated, but finally took 930 gold from his inventory and handed it to Tilto. He then began to put the swords on the counter into his inventory one by one.
“Forty-one, counting the one I bought earlier, for a total of 50.
Ming Hu smiled as he looked at the swords in his inventory. It was a different kind of smile than when his inventory was filled with other items.
“Goodbye.”
Ming Hu gave a quick nod to Tilto and walked out of the store. Once outside, he headed straight for the chief’s house.
“Once we get rid of these…”
Ming Hu smiled broadly as he walked to the village chief’s house and looked at his inventory. His inventory was filled with items of great value, including two uniques, six rares, fifty magic-grade swords, and the skin of a monstrous fox.
“…Huh?”
It was then. Ming Hu had no choice but to stop walking and stare at the faces of a middle-aged man and woman walking in front of him. I had never seen them before.
“…user?
It wasn’t an NPC, that was for sure.
“I can’t believe I’m not the only user starting here.”
Himise was a backcountry town in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by the Broth Mountains, which were teeming with boss-level monsters. Even if you didn’t know that, the chances of choosing Himise, with its lousy description, were very small.
“How nice to see you.”
I had met users in the forests of Lake Kumho, but seeing them in town was a different and refreshing experience. Of course, that was it.
“Let’s go.”
Ming Hu started walking again. Soon he passed the man and woman and arrived at the chief’s house, where he walked briskly to the door, opened it, and stepped inside.
“Greetings. Chief!”
“Oh, welcome, but why are you so late, wait a minute!”
After entering and greeting him, Ming Hu couldn’t help but scratch his head at the behavior of Gadagu, who greeted him with a series of words and entered the room. What was he late for?
Profit
Shortly thereafter, Gadergu came out of the room. When he emerged, he held a ring in his hand.
“There it is!”
“…?”
Myung-hoo suddenly shook his head as Gadergu handed him the ring, and he took it.
[You have obtained the promise of Himise].
“If it hadn’t been for you, something bad would have happened to Hamur. This is a token of our village’s commitment. I hope you will keep it.”
When Gadagu finished speaking, Ming Hu opened his inventory to see the options for Himise’s promise.
[Not Tradable]
Restrictions: Clear skies
Physical Defense: 5
Magic Defense: 5
(Portal: Himise)
Open a portal to Himiseh from anywhere. (twice a day)
As a token of the commitment of the people of Himise, all items sold in Himise can be purchased for 10% less.
“…”
After checking the options, Ming Hu suddenly remembered the fifty swords he had purchased at the Mugu Store, but it was too late. Ming Hu shook off his regret and looked at Gadegui with a smile.
“I’ll take care of it. And the chief?”
“Why But?”
“I have a question.”
When Myung-hoo said he had a question, he smiled broadly.
“What do you want to know?”
“It’s… I’m going to have to go into town for a while.”
At Ming Hu’s words, Gadagu wiped his smile off his face and turned serious.
“How do I get from here to the city, that’s what you want to know!”
“Yes.”
“Hmm.”
Gadagu let out a short breath. Then he looked at Ming Hu and said
“You see, my village doesn’t have a warpgate, which means that to get to the city or other towns, we have to travel by foot. The problem is that our village is surrounded by the Bross Mountains. I don’t know if you know this, but the Broth Mountains are full of incredibly strong monsters.”
“…”
“To get to another city or town, you have to go through those Bross Mountains.”
I knew this much. Ming Hu continued to focus on Gadagu’s words.
“It’s no easy task to make your way through the Broth Mountains, which are teeming with powerful monsters, but it’s not without its challenges. There’s one place that’s easier than the rest. It’s the Forest of Azure!”
“The Blue Forest?”
“Yes, the Blue Raven Forest, home to the weakest Blue Raven in the Broth Mountains, though of course that means they are relatively weak compared to the monsters in the Broth Mountains, not that they are weak by any means.”
“A forest of blue and white.
Ming Hu decided to cross the Broth Mountains through the Qinglang Forest. Having made his decision, Ming Hu looked at Gadegu and said, “I’m going to cross the Broth Mountains.
“Where is the Forest of Qinglang located?”
“Have you ever been to your wolf habitat?”
I haven’t been there much, but I’ve definitely been there.
“Yes.”
“And do you know how much river is flowing through the wolf habitat?”
I did not see the river. Ming Hu shook his head.
“Well, there’s a big river running through the wolf’s habitat. If you follow the river all the way down, you’ll come to a dense bush. That’s the beginning of the Blue Ridge Forest.”
Ming Hu nodded his head in understanding at the simplicity of Gadagu’s explanation and looked at Gadagu with an expression of understanding. When he saw that, he smiled and opened his mouth to speak.
“If you go unprepared, you’ll be in danger before you’ve even crossed the mountain range through the forest, for the blue langs are, as I said, relatively weak, but they’re not weak by any means. However, if you wish to travel safely through their forests, stop by Teren and ask him for some meat to feed the blue langs, and he will sell you some of his work. That’s all you need. you’ll be able to pass through the Bluebell Forest and cross the Broth Mountains without incident.”
“Thank you.”
After thanking him for his careful explanation of what to bring, Ming Hu stood up and walked out.
“Let’s go for a second job!”
Once outside, Ming Hu considered stopping at the butcher shop to stock up on supplies first, but decided that the second job change was more urgent and began walking toward the Warriors’ Guild.
“But… I think I can catch him with Blue.”
As Ming Hu walked toward the Warriors’ Guild, he suddenly realized that he didn’t need meat to feed Qing Lang. He didn’t know how strong Qing Lang was, but he doubted she was stronger than the monster fox.
“And a stun ring.”
And he had the ultimate item, the Stun Ring, which allowed him to slaughter the monster fox.
“…let’s think about it as we leave.”
Ming Hu was debating whether or not to buy meat to marinate, but when he arrived at the Warriors’ Guild, he decided to think about it later and went inside. Once inside, the NPC who had previously converted him to a warrior was sitting at the counter. Ming Hu approached the NPC and said
“I’m here for a second job.”
“Second job change?”
“Yes.”
“Hmm.”
When Myung Hu said that he was here for a second job change, the NPC was silent for a moment, then looked at Myung Hu with an apologetic expression.
“I’m sorry… you’re not eligible for a second job here.”
“…to?”
Ming Hu is puzzled when the NPC tells him that he can’t change jobs a second time. Why is it that he can’t change jobs here?
“Why can’t I get a second job here?”
Ming Hu asks the NPC why he can’t change jobs a second time, and the NPC’s response makes Ming Hu frown.
“You’re not the only one. You can’t even get a second job here. You’ll have to go to the Warrior Guild in the city for your second job.”
