NOVEL NEXT chapter 3
3 – in the ghetto (3)
It seems like it’s normal for any game
There is also an element called Hidden Peace in the Ernel Saga.
You can get it by clearing certain quests.
Depending on the type, it was divided into items or skills.
‘However, a few of these can be easily obtained as bugs.’
in what is called an honorable achievement,
The user who first discovered the bug contacted the management team.
If it is determined that fixing is difficult or impossible, it is a way of acknowledging the breaking as a bug.
I don’t have the ability to roughly fix it, so I’m admitting it with the feeling of taking care of it in time, but
Anyway, there was no reason for me to say such a thing.
‘This is the case for the old man who is going now.’
This is a bug discovered by a certain community user who was famous for his perverted play.
It is a method that has become a hot topic among gamers as well as the management team.
‘I never thought that only ordinary people would play with the skill of possessing and find out… ‘
Of course, it was half a gamble because there is no guarantee that this world will follow the rules of the original work.
It is unclear whether the concept of a bug itself will work in reality.
‘But if it works out as intended, I can make the best start for now.’
“It should be something like this… ”
Let’s keep our eyes open and walk. I saw a shabby house that I often saw in games.
He approached and knocked hard on the door, and a small crack opened, revealing white glistening eyes.
“I thought they were dark guys… It’s surprising that he’s a child.”
“So you young blood. What business did you come here for? Did you lose your mother too?”
He opened his mouth while looking at the old man spitting out lines from the game without making a mistake.
“I came to take the test of noble blood.”
“… … .”
Silence fell in an instant and lasted for several minutes.
squeak
The door opened, and the shady gaze disappeared, and an old man stood in front of him, looking in disbelief.
“… come in It’s not something to talk about outside.”

‘The half has come.’
The old man gestured for the nearest chair to be pulled over.
“therefore… I wonder where a kid like you heard that?”
He looked at me with sharp eyes.
‘It’s starting now. You have to brush your teeth as naturally as possible.’
I answered the question by spitting out the words I had thought of beforehand.
An old man who listened quietly.
“So the nanny who raised you told me that? You have qualifications, so go find me?”
“You can’t believe that?”
Towards the old man, who looked suspiciously at him, he deliberately bluffed himself even more.
‘If I can’t even take the test, it’s a waste.’
At least find out if this works. I was able to make plans for the future.
There were quite a few buggy places besides here.
‘I may die unluckily, but I may be the rightful heir, so I won’t beheaded for failing.’
For the elderly, this is an important duty passed down from generation to generation in the family beyond a lifetime. You will not be able to act rashly.
“How was the nanny? name is?”
“Dead. I don’t even know the name. ‘You don’t have to remember the name of something as insignificant as me. Because I often said ‘Bocchan’”
The old man frowned and looked disapprovingly.
“There are too many suspicious things to believe what you say. Don’t you think it’s a poor story even if you think about it yourself?”
Of course, it’s poor, because I made it up roughly as I walked.
But there is no need to embellish it further.
He confidently rolled up the sleeve of his right arm and showed his wrist.
“You can do it. Why would you be so suspicious when there is a sure way? Hassar?”
“… ”
“Do you even know my real name… Really that nanny.”
The old man touched my chin and then met my eyes.
“Okay, you’ll know when you test it. Because it doesn’t take long. But if it is false, you will never again be tested by Hasar. Be mindful.”
Soon, a thick, dark aura emanated from his right hand.
‘That’s a magic instrument… .’
Energy that you will naturally deal with when you become a Mine.
It was the first time I saw it in person, so I was afraid, but I looked at it without expressing it.
The old man holding my wrist tightly
Koo Goo Goo!
It made an unusual sound effect and focused the demonic energy on the wrist.
‘Ugh… ‘
The pain that seemed to be burnt on fire made me swear words.
[Poor Adaptability (D+) is active]
[All resistances are slightly reduced, and pain tolerance is increased!]
Let’s just barely endure it while listening to the sound
“… !”
A blindingly strong light emanated from the wrist.
“this… Lolsu, really?”
The old man’s voice trembled in disbelief.
‘done! works! Success!’
Even though I let out a moan in pain, I couldn’t contain the joy inside.
It’s the moment when it’s proven that elements using bugs work in this world too!
Tring!
[Quest clear reward will be given.]
[Reward: Descendants of the brand, 500p shop points]

【Descendants of the Brand (C-)】
An inscription symbolizing the one who inherited the blood of the demon king.

[Locked due to lack of rating]
[You are not a descendant of the enemy!]
[Cannot grow!]

‘I see this in real life.’
At first glance, a complex looking pattern was stamped on the wrist.
Descendants of the stigma was a characteristic that could be seen when conducting quests related to demons.
Their identity was revealed for the first time in the process of finding their king, the Demon King, and it was a characteristic that the main characters could never acquire.
‘It’s ambiguous if it’s a low grade on such a subject.’
At least A must go up. Gamers with high eyes evaluate it as a scam.
If it was below that level, it couldn’t be considered that great.
‘But it’s big for me.’
Ability is the ability that is evaluated as the most important next to potential.
The success rate and power of your skills, your growth proficiency, and even your application power.
Because it affects everything.
‘I was really lucky.’
The acquisition method revealed in the community is that the unique ability is unlocked, but the characteristic is not possessed.
And it required a very difficult condition that the ability level was 5 or less.
A condition that is impossible to achieve with the main characters, whose minimum abilities are guaranteed from the beginning.
That’s why it hasn’t been revealed for a long time, and it was discovered after trial and error by a user who came into contact with an elderly person as a possessed ordinary person.
I left the still surprised man behind and opened the status window.

‘Has the foundation been laid… ‘
He opened his mouth to the old man who was staring blankly at him.
“It seems to have been proven. According to tradition, I, the heir, have something to offer, right?”
“Um… .”
He swallowed his saliva, and handed over a small, shiny golden key from his bosom.
──────────────────
＜The Demon King’s Seal Mark (A+)＞
A special dungeon key that only heirs with the stigma can enter.
It is said to have been made with the hardened blood of the demon king.

great.
I’m weak right now, so even if I go, the monsters will make me hungry, but it will be of great help to my future growth.
“And I have a personal favor to ask… ”
The old man is humble,
“Do you have anything to ask?”
Are you saying you can’t say anything respectful? It’s embarrassing, but it turned out better.
“Is there a slaughterhouse run by Han Ae-jung? Sell me over there.”
“What… ?”
“What are you talking about all of a sudden? Are you going to hand over yourself?”
I looked at him like I was looking at a madman.
“Oh, that’s my request.”
“You’re saying something that’s not even funny. No matter how much money I have, I won’t sell out my successor.”
He showed a hint of discomfort and gestured to say something else.
“I need it most, because she has business.”
“If that’s the case, let me meet you in person… .”
The old man, startled while continuing his speech,
“… Could it be that she was involved in the nanny’s death?”
‘yes? what… ?’
He was silent at the unexpected question, but he took it as an affirmation.
“I see, personal revenge… It’s not even a parent’s child, but it’s just revenge for a nanny… ”
He looked at me carefully and opened his mouth.
“This heir is needlessly compassionate. The girl who came last time didn’t seem to have any blood or tears… ”
female… ? Oh is it her?
Yes, originally, she was the only heir, but since I got this trait as a bug, she won’t be the only one.
‘Wait a minute, won’t it be a big deal if I get caught?’
There’s absolutely nothing good about getting involved with the Mine Guild…
While moaning alone.
“good night. If it’s revenge, you’ll want to do it yourself.
After all, it’s very common for kids on this bottom to betray each other.
You don’t have to keep your friendship with her. However, I can’t understand something that is not poetic, so ask for another request.”
Seeing an older man who is kinder than I thought,
“No, this is enough. A proper request will be heard as a customer later, so ask for help at that time. Oh, of course, you’re not going to give me any information, right?”
old man grinning
“Don’t do it for a particularly cheap price. do not worry. I’m not stupid enough to sell out information about the successor.”
As he said, he couldn’t get information about the demon lord from the old man no matter what he did.
‘Even the moment your head runs away… ‘
Even in the community, people called loyal grandpas can be trusted.
“It would be better to start right away so that the horns are also sweet.”
He rummaged through the drawer and pulled out an odd-looking pill.
“It is a sleeping pill with no special function. do not worry. I won’t even touch your body. Because Han Ae-jung is a kind-hearted child.
Don’t be harsh, just tell me to keep working. I’m a bitch who believes in my words, so I’ll keep you by my side.”
Oh, thanks for that, just in case. After examining it through observation, I poured it into my mouth.
[You are receiving a strong sleep effect.]
[Poor Adaptability (D+) is active.]
[The mental effect of Probability (C) is active.]
[Resists the effects of sleep… Spirit level is rising slightly… ]
Lowered the resistance to incoming messages.
Then my vision gets blurry
… Well, if you are the heir of the same bloodline as that girl… suffering that much. I’ll be able to overcome it…
I lost my mind, leaving behind the muffled words.
