Solo Eating to Overpowered

Episode 24

“What a shame.”

The sun rising over the horizon!

The morning dawned.

X wiped off his sweat and checked the level.

Level: 63

“The required experience points have definitely increased.”

The goal is level 65.

I hunted non-stop all night, but was unable to achieve anything.

This is the level of X, which has an overwhelming hunting speed, and the difficulties of other users were understandable.

‘What should I do? Should I move it?’

There were no monsters around here that could threaten X.

No matter how high it was, it was not a difficult opponent for X, who had both level 80 skills and stats.

A dish that combines various spices!

All the stats that can be raised through Lizardman meat have been raised. Lizardman hides were also piled up, so it seemed like it would be a good idea to take some time and head to a nearby village.

“Still, level 63 is a bit ambiguous, right?”

The morning is bright, but let’s get to level 65!

Sreung! X drew his sword again.

Then, didn’t the group of lizardmen gathered in the nearby swamp start to flinch?

Sneaky! The Lizardmen quickly leave the place after seeing X!

“You guys are scary.”

X, fully covered in the scent of his compatriots!

Thanks to the smell that came from cooking lizardman meat, X was bound to be regarded as a feared being among lizardmen. That’s because it was no exaggeration to say that X single-handedly defeated all the lizardmen in the swamp.

In short, X has become the natural enemy of the Lizardmen.

“But there are degrees of running away.”

Clap!

Lizardmen running rampant in their own territory!

It is not an easy sight to see these brave people running away.

But even though it was a rare sight, X was annoyed by this game of tag.

“I need to get to level 65.” “It’s still urgent, so why not stop?”

Thing!

X’s cool gaze stared at the lizardmen.

At that moment, something amazing happened.

The Lizardmen who were running away flinched and stopped.

“what?”

A notification occurred to X, who was puzzled.

Tiroling!

[‘Paegi’ was created with overwhelming charisma!]

A new status, Paige!

‘Ambition? This is my first time hearing it…’

X also didn’t know any information about Haki.

Out of curiosity, I moved my fingers to check the information.

Awesomeness: You can break the enemy’s will to fight with just your intimidation. There is no penalty for dealing with strong enemies. If you can handle it perfectly, it will be a stronger weapon than anything else.

The sense of intimidation alone breaks the will to fight!

After looking at the information, I thought I knew why the lizardmen ran away.

Moreover, considering that it could be a stronger weapon than anything else, it was clear that its power also increased as its value increased.

However, there was something else that caught X’s attention more than anything else.

“There is no penalty even when dealing with a strong enemy.”

Speaking of fate, it is a penalty given when dealing with an opponent of a higher level than oneself.

Fate had a system to prevent high levels from overpowering low levels.

‘If the level difference between you and the monster is too large, you will not be able to gain proper experience.’

The standards for level differences were different for each level section, but the most appropriate line was maintained to prevent tricks.

X also received a penalty when dealing with enemies of a higher level than himself.

Nevertheless, the monopolizing experience points and fast hunting speed made up for the penalty.

But you can ignore that penalty!

‘I think this could make the leveling up speed even faster?’

The higher the level, the more experience required to level up.

But what if there is no penalty for catching a high-level monster?

It’s like giving wings to X, who is only level 60 and has stats close to level 200.

“Okay, it’s worth the investment.”

X immediately invested the remaining bonus points into defeat.

‘Wouldn’t it be better to invest first in the future?’

Strength, agility and intelligence could also be raised through heavenly taste. Therefore, X had invested a considerable amount of bonus points in patience, but from now on, he was planning to invest in passion.

“Anyway, it worked out. “It saves you the trouble of chasing those who run away.”

Thing! X radiated his spirit towards the Lizardmen.

These are the Lizardmen who hesitated even when the Haki stat was just created.

When my spirit point exceeded 10, I was even shaking.

X, who was thinking deeply, let out a small laugh.

‘The day will come when I will make the War Machines tremble with this spirit.’

*

“okay. “At this point, I pass.”

Level 65!

X, who eventually achieved his goal, gathered his equipment and escaped the swamp.

After running for about 3 hours through the wet swamp, you will reach the village.

‘This is better than equipment made from lizardman leather.’

Unique item: The protection of the winter forest.

Unless the equipment is made by someone with craftsman-level skills, better armor cannot be made from lizardman leather. As soon as X arrived in town, he visited the exchange.

“I’m planning to dispose of some lizardman leather.”

“Oh, it’s Lizardman leather. “Could you please show me somewhere?”

chin! X held out nearly 100 pieces of lizardman leather.

Cheer up! I am now used to the surprised reactions of NPCs.

A middle-aged man who was an NPC at the exchange swallowed dry saliva and said.

“That’s quite a lot. “I thought he had little to do with the adventure world because he seemed highly regarded, but he seems to have considerable skills.”

Here, network refers to reputation.

NPCs recognize X’s reputation level, which is higher than the average.

X’s pockets became rich after selling Lizardman leather for 20 gold each.

‘There’s nothing good about being preoccupied with money, but…’

How much did this make?

I only hunted lizardmen for a little over a day and earned a whopping 2000 gold.

Converted into cash, 10 million won was earned overnight.

“Anything will become an item.”

My character takes precedence over me!

Suddenly, a middle-aged man asked X with a troubled look.

“I’m sorry, but do you have time?”

“I have time, but can I do anything?”

“Actually, I’m in the process of recruiting guards for the upper level.”

The escort at the top.

It smelled like a quest.

When X nodded, the man continued.

“The day before yesterday, a fairly famous merchant arrived in our village. “It was a gift for the new lord of the neighboring city of Harkrid, and I was asked to recruit a guard on his behalf, saying it must be carried safely.”

Harkrid!

I saw information that even though it is a fairly large city, the chaotic atmosphere never goes away.

Therefore, the news that a new lord had appeared was not very surprising.

“Adventurer, if you are heading towards Harkrid, could you please participate in the escort? “The pay is low, but I would like to ask you a favor first.”

Tiroling!

《Please provide escort at the top.》

The shortcut to Harkrid is quite dangerous. Because you have to pass through mountain paths infested with thieves and bandits, an excellent bodyguard is essential. If you have outstanding skills, you will be able to participate as a top guard.

Condition: Level 60 or higher

Difficulty: D

Reward: 50 gold

‘Hmm, that’s not bad, right?’

The reason the middle-aged man said the pay was low was purely because X seemed to have a lot of money.

It was worth it. Because X received a whopping 2000 gold from the transaction just now.

However, 50 gold is not a small amount of money.

‘50 gold for free. ‘You can’t just pass it by.’

There was no place that could be called a hunting ground between the current village and Harkrid.

X was also disappointed about that. I couldn’t have been happier with the quest given at the right time.

“great. “I will participate!”

*

“Why are you bringing so many gifts?”

Isn’t this a complete bribe?

Grumble, grumble.

X, who was waiting at the top edge, was very grumpy. It had to be that way.

Like X, the conversations between users who received the escort quest were heartbreaking.

“Wow, there’s already a user who has eaten the city.”

“Well, even though it’s not a strategic location, it’s a large city. Who cares if you have a bad reputation? “How much money is rolling in just by sitting still?”

“I can’t believe I have to escort that bastard’s gift. “Wow, my stomach hurts.”

The new lord of Harkrid!

He was a user, not an NPC.

X pursed his lips and thought.

‘He drove out the lord who had originally had weak authority and conquered Haqrid through force. Putting reputation aside, aren’t you afraid of revenge from the Kingdom of Arba?’

Even if they fail, a noble is still a noble.

If you touch a noble recognized by the kingdom, you will end up in blood. If he could take over a city, he would be a ranker or someone close to a ranker. Still, it cannot even be compared to the power of the kingdom.

X shrugged his shoulders.

‘It’s not something I think about.’

It had nothing to do with X whether they supported each other or argued with each other. Just one question occurred to me.

“You must not be a fool to run a business like this…”

Why are you offering a gift to a new lord who will soon see blood? It seemed like there was definitely something going on behind the scenes. But that also has nothing to do with X.

X put aside his thoughts and followed the moving top.

“Keep your eyes on all sides! “The mountain path begins from here.”

The guard captain on horseback shouted loudly.

Users whispered.

“What are the levels of the thieves around here?”

“About 70? They say they are used to fighting in groups, not just because of their level. “I heard there are more than a few people who got robbed because they thought they were NPCs?”

“So, I guess they recruited escorts by giving them 50 gold each.”

X listened carefully to the users’ conversations.

‘It’s a level 70 NPC.’

A job quest you can’t give up.

Reveal the truth about the Gourmet King!

At some point, it was X who had to go to war with the key NPCs of Arba Kingdom who were over level 700. Because of this, I became curious about how NPCs fight against users.

‘Are there patterns like monsters?’

Or do you think and fight like a real person?

It seemed like it would be a sure bet to hit him directly.

X’s wish soon became a reality.

The captain of the guard, who was leading the squad from the front, shouted urgently.

“It’s an enemy attack! Everyone prepare for battle!”

Each user took out their equipment.

“I would have been disappointed if you didn’t show up.”

“Don’t let your guard down. Are you really going to the goal?”

That’s right, you can’t let down your guard at all times.

visor! X also carefully raised his sword.

puck! At that moment, the man next to X stumbled.

“Tsk. “You’re going to shoot arrows this night, right?”

To hit an arrow while hiding in a dark mountain.

The man wrapped his arms around his side and glared at the bushes.

Likewise, a priest who participated in the escort treated the man.

X looked closely at the direction the arrow came from.

‘An arrow big enough to pierce heavy armor?’

The man who was hit by the arrow was armed with decent heavy armor.

But an arrow strong enough to stagger even through heavy armor?

That is impossible with the abilities of a level 70 NPC.

sparkle!

X found glowing red eyes in the bushes.

‘knave!’

If you repeat evil deeds while your reputation is 0, your reputation will change to notoriety and you will be treated as a ‘villain’. One of the biggest characteristics of the villain was his red eyes.

‘Judging by the power of the arrow, it is at least level 100.’

What this means is that the villain hiding in the bushes is the highest level among the users here. Of course, that doesn’t mean it’s the strongest!

Ta-tat! X rushed into the bushes with a smile on his face.

‘You don’t get a penalty even if you play PK with a villain.’

PK (Player Kill)!

It is not a fair confrontation through agreement, but a brutal dog fight!

Losing means death and incurs a death penalty.

In addition, there is a certain probability that items will be randomly taken away by the opponent.

However, X had no confidence in Jill!

“Even after all this, I’m a person who is good at dog fighting.”

Valuable practical experience and items!

I couldn’t help but laugh at the group of villains and thieves who gave generously.

Munchkin that I eat all by myself
