Chapter 11: Convenience Store (1)

As they walked towards home, Ryu Won couldnt help but stare at his older brother, unable to keep his mouth shut any longer.

Hyung, what happened? Did you learn martial arts somewhere?

When would I have had time for that?

Ryu Min had been working a part-time job to earn a living ever since he became a high school student. He had worked while going to school with the goal of at least earning his diploma, leaving no time to learn anything like martial arts.

Then how did you do that? Those moves were incredible!Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

Did you not read the news? Players can also use their abilities in the real world.

Ryu Min opened his inventory and pulled out Stiletto.

Wow, where did that come from?

He almost forgot that the system cant be seen by others.

As a player, I can use my abilities in real life, just like this.

He put the dagger back in the inventory, and it disappeared like magic. Ryu Won couldnt believe what he was seeing, but what happened at the hideout was even more unbelievable.

My brother defeated Bae Taegyu I can hardly believe it.

Even middle school seniors and high school students were scared of Bae Taegyu, but Ryu Min defeated him easily, without even taking a hit.

Do all players move like you, Hyung? How can anyone move like that?

My agility stat is 11.

Stat? Like in the game?

Ryu Min patiently explained everything to his brother, who was still learning.

So did you put all of your points into agility?

Yeah, thats right.

Whats the average agility?

For an average adult, its about 3, and for an athlete, its around 10.

Ryu Min was like a seasoned boxer in terms of agility.

Then what happens if your agility reaches 30 or 50 as you level up?

I dont know. Ive never reached that level.

Of course, that was a lie. Ryu Min had increased his agility to over 300 in his previous regressions.

Once you reach 300, you become a monster. At that point, you can even dodge bullets, and modern weapons are useless against you.

Well, yeah. We dont even have enough money for medical expenses

He wont report us if he doesnt want to die.

Ryu Min was confident that Bae Taegyu wont report this incident.

He had already proven that he wasnt stupid enough to ignore such a warning in the previous regressions.

Hell probably just make excuses about getting hurt in a street fight. The people around him will take care of him.

Ryu Won felt relieved, knowing that Bae Taegyu wouldnt dare to talk.

But Ryu Min didnt care even if he did talk.

Because hell shut up if we pay him off in the end.

Although Ryu Mins financial situation was currently dire, he wasnt worried.

We can always make money.

However, his brother still seemed troubled, his face full of concern.

As they walked, Ryu Wons mind kept circling back to the thought that anything could happen.

After all, I dont know what might happen in this situation, unlike my brother who has been through it multiple times, he thought to himself.

Although Ryu Min laughed it off, saying that they had nothing to worry about because of the money, Ryu Won couldnt help but worry about something else entirely.

Is this really the brother that I know?

He had only glanced at him for a moment, but he could tell that he looked the same as he had been yesterday.

He couldnt help but recall the way his brother had ruthlessly broken someones finger without a second thought.

But Ryu Won wasnt afraid of his brothers cruelty; in fact, he found it thrilling to see Taegyus agony.

The problem is that the brother I know isnt this cold and heartless, He mused.

Does becoming a player change a person so drastically? Or does the harsh experience of killing and being killed in the game transform them?

I dont know much about surviving a game like this

He glanced at her brother, who noticed his staring and looked back quizzically.

Whats wrong?

Nothing, its nothing, He replied, relieved to see that his brother was still himself when he wasnt fighting.

If hes still the same in normal life, then thats enough, Ryu Won thought, trying to ease his worries.

Just then, they spotted a convenience store.
