Chapter 1: Chance
“Ah, is there no fun gallery anywhere….”
I’m a complete unemployed bum.
I live a life like this every day, just browsing the internet.
Today too, it was a day wandering in search of new dopamine.
“Hm? Hunter Gallery? A place I’ve never seen before.”
In the midst of that, I discovered a gallery I hadn’t seen before listed in the real-time hot galleries.
‘Hunter Gallery.’
Seeing the name, it seemed like a gallery where active hunters chat.
“Hunter, huh…. It would be nice if I suddenly awakened too. Earn tons of money. Live an easy life….”
It’s a world with towers and monsters.
In a world where the country is shaking and normal jobs have decreased a lot, hunters who are guaranteed money and fame are the most spotlighted profession.
Of course, it’s not something you can become just because you want to.
Hunter awakening is solely determined by luck.
As far as I know, there are roughly 10,000 hunters in Korea.
I became curious about what stories those lucky people are telling.
I clicked the gallery as if possessed.
To check the gallery atmosphere, I first searched the recommended posts.
[Hunter Gallery]

[Title: Warning) Absolutely Don’t Go to That Hunter Academy They’re Advertising Lately. It’s a Scam]
Went today and it’s really a scammer.
They brought some fitness trainer as a specialist instructor, unbelievable lol.
Kids with no hunter experience bullsh*tting about helping with hunter awakening. It’s the Hongdae Academy.
ㄴThe fact is, if you have a brain, you should filter just by seeing the ad.
ㄴFor real, isn’t it the fault of those who got tricked?
ㄴNo, but lately hunter academies are really increasing. What are these bastards?
ㄴAll scams. Awakening is just luck.

[Title: Top Hunters’ Earnings Are Legendary Shiver]
A-rank certified monthly earnings of 1 billion this time, is this real? For real insane. Ah, I want to awaken and live comfortably too.
ㄴComfortable? Lol, hunters face death crises multiple times?
ㄴㄴThat’s C-rank D-rank hunters lol, would A-rank have death crises?
ㄴㄴFor real lol, moreover that one is a ma0ge. Spoon-fed job. Money duplicates just by clicking from behind lol
ㄴThe Ma14 Method is open to everyone. The Ma14 Method opens the door when you cleanse your mind, energy, body and face yourself. The method is as follows. First, to cleanse the body, eat dirt for 30 days…(More)
Hm, I immediately grasped the gallery’s atmosphere.
That there are no active hunters here or anything.
The gallery introduction as a gathering for active hunters is colorless.
Well, doesn’t matter. I’m not an active hunter either.
I too, like these people, just need some time-killing peanuts.
I mindlessly posted a thread.
[Title: Honestly, For Civilians Who Haven’t Awakened Yet, Isn’t Quick Reset the Answer?]
For real lol
ㄴThen what about you? Are you a hunter?
ㄴㄴ(Author) Me? I’m a hunter? B-rank.
ㄴㄴWhat’s the name of the hunter training center cafeteria? Tell me. Giving 10 seconds.
“Tsk. Got caught right away as expected.”
But for a exposed post, just delete it.
It was when I deleted the post and tried to write a new sh*t post.
A comment notification rang.
As an attention addict, I hurriedly clicked the post again.
ㄴThe Ma17 Method is open to everyone. The Ma17 Method opens the door when you cleanse your mind, energy, body and face yourself. The method is as follows. First, to cleanse the body, eat dirt for 30 days…(More)
“Ah, what. It’s aggro….”
Disappointed, I clicked delete post right away.
But that comment just now kept lingering in my memory.
If I saw such a guy elsewhere, I would have passed it as a mental patient aggro.
However, as a 10-year gallery veteran, I noticed this isn’t simple aggro.
Following the intuition of a gallery addict, I checked other posts.
As expected, every post had comments about ma something.
The important thing here is the time the comments were posted.
These comments were posted 2 to 3 minutes after the post, sometimes after 10 minutes.
What that means is clear.
This comment isn’t a macro. It’s being written by hand directly.
“One of two. Either a bum with no money for macro or a top-tier mental patient.”
Either way, not an ordinary guy.
Anyway, since I got curious about this guy’s identity, I wrote another post.
[Title: The Guy Commenting About Ma Something, What’s His Identity?]
He’s manually commenting on every post. For real, what is he?
But this time, no comments were added.
I kept refreshing while waiting for comments.
“Huh? What? Where did my post go.”
At that time, I discovered my post was deleted.
Something I can’t tolerate more than anything.
I immediately started writing a protest post.
[Title: Hey, Why Was My Post Deleted?]
It was a post asking about ma something, why delete?
It was when I wrote the post like that and pressed enter.
[Blocked IP. Reason: Block period 30 days.]
“What the f*ck is this.”
My head heats up.
Post deletion? I can tolerate.
But block? That too 30 days?
This is declaring war on me right now.
I immediately turned on VPN and wrote the same post.
[Title: Hey, What Is Deleting? Armband Crazy?]
[Deleted Post.]
[Blocked IP. Reason: Block period 30 days.]
“Oh ho.”
As expected, this post too was immediately deleted.
But as anticipated.
I immediately started spamming the gallery using macro and VPN.
[Title: Hey, What Is Deleting? Armband Crazy?]
[Title: Another Mental Patient Entered.]
[Title: Hey, What Is Deleting? Armband Crazy?]
[Title: Gallery Is Ruined.]
[Title: Hey, What Is Deleting? Armband Crazy?]
Seeing the gallery quickly flooded with my posts, I felt satisfied.
The armband is deleting my posts, but it’s natural that my speed is faster than them who check titles one by one and delete.
[Title: Hey, What Is Deleting? Armband Crazy?]
[Title: Is Ma Villain. Read the Notice]
[Title: Hey, What Is Deleting? Armband Crazy?]
[Posting is temporarily restricted in this gallery.]
“Hm?”
I stopped posting at the familiar message.
The armband raised the white flag.
They froze the gallery for a while.
Not just me, but blocked everyone from using the gallery temporarily.
In other words, my victory.
Intoxicated with victory, I opened a can of cola and chugged it.
“More than that, ma villain huh….”
After coming to this gallery, I read the notice for the first time.
Reading the gallery rules after getting suspended is also a national rule if anything.
As expected, upon searching, there was a related post at the end of the usage rules.
[Regulation Addition) Block on mentioning , mavil, ma villain. Block on ma word. Ma.law ma,law ma law all blocked.]
“Hm, more impressive than expected?”
I sent a kind of admiration to that guy as a gallery villain.
To ban not just mentioning in the gallery, but the word ma itself.
This guy, villain among villains.
Not an ordinary guy.
I read the comment he posted once more.
– Ma is open to everyone. Ma opens the door when you cleanse your mind, energy, body and face yourself. The method is as follows. First, to cleanse the body, eat dirt for 30 days…(More)
“Hm…. Should I try following it once.”
Suddenly, such an impulse dominated my body.
One thing was certain.
If I follow this exactly, I can go to recommended posts.
“Maybe even make it to monthly best post….”
Yeah, can’t resist this.
Okay. Let’s do it right now.
I immediately copied the comment and printed it.
Upon printing, the volume was considerable.
Whoever it is, seems serious about the setting.
“There are five attributes in ma that can be awakened. Among them, the one beginners can safely try is earth attribute ma….”
To awaken earth attribute ma, just eat a handful of dirt every meal for 30 days.
“Fire ma is burns for 30 days, lightning is electrocution…. Wow, the rest absolutely can’t be followed.”
Compared to that, eating dirt? Fully possible.
I’m a man crazy for aggro. Love attention too much.
Moreover, eating dirt is good for leaving photo proof shots.
“Might as well try it.”
From that day, I ate dirt every day.
Even for me, chewing raw dirt was hard.
So at first, I mainly drank sand mixed with water and barley powder, or baked mud cookies and chewed them to ingest dirt.
Until then, no particular thoughts.
Except sometimes feeling constipation worsened.
I was just a machine writing sh*t posts touring various galleries same as always.
[…When such practice exceeds 15 days, divinity dwells in the body and the body’s energy starts to change.]
However, start of week 3 of practice. Day 15.
An abnormality occurred in the body.
The fingertips started crumbling like sand.
