I Have Awakened, but Mosquitoes Are My Enemies

In the meantime, the vibration stops and a missed call notification pops up.

This is the first phone number you see.

‘Is it spam?’

Still, I tried to click on it just in case.

Then, a familiar voice rang in my ears.

-Mr. Kang Joon-young? This is Yoo Jong-soo. Sorry for the late hour. Is it okay to call?

It is a voice that sounds urgent.

“Yes, of course. What are you doing?”

-It’s no different, maybe the gate tomorrow…

Then, I hear someone stealing Yoo Jong-soo’s phone.

voice that goes with him.

-Are you Junyoung Kang, a professional mosquito hunter? I am Kwak Sang-woo, head of the Hunter Management Department at Gwangjin-gu Office.

“Ah yes.”

Yum Yum.

The leftover chicken melts in your mouth.

-Seeing that you are chewing something, you must be eating.

“yes. I was eating some chicken. My family congratulated me for becoming a Hunter.”

-hahahaha! You are too. Beer goes well with chicken.

“Of course I also drink beer. But what did you call me for?

Then, Kwak Sang-woo, who seemed to be laughing with a chuckle, suddenly spoke in a polite voice.

-First of all, I would like to say that I am really sorry that Mr. Kang Joon-yeong returned safely today. We didn’t expect that the children’s grand park gate had evolved and ran out of control, so we put Kang Joon-young in danger. We sincerely apologize for this.

After stealing Yoo Jong-soo’s phone, Kwak Sang-woo is apologizing to Jun-young.

‘I’m not saying anything wrong.’

If Junyeong hadn’t been the natural enemy of the vampires, he would have died today.

However, dying every day is the site of the gate, and it is also the fate of the hunters.

If you don’t like that kind of risk, just don’t go to the field.

The choice is the Hunter’s own.

However, Jun-yeong, who just became a hunter today, received requests for cooperation from public officials without even having time to think about such things.

It is natural to receive such an apology.

Still, it is unusual for Kwak Sang-woo, the head of the Hunter management department, to apologize directly to Jun-young, who is only an F-rank hunter.

– I will never let that happen again. We will fully reflect the risk allowance and deposit the mission reward within tomorrow.

“Tomorrow? It’s fast.”

-Unlike other human services, it is a rule that hunter mission rewards are processed immediately and deposited the next day. Tomorrow, the F-class hunter’s national subsidy of 1 million won will also be deposited, and the amount will be tax-free.

In an instant, a smile crept across Junyoung’s lips.

A mere apology is meaningless.

But if you show sincerity with money, you should accept it.

-Once again, we apologize for our negligence today.

“no. It was unavoidable at the time, so I understand. By the way, is that why you called?”

-yes. I called because I thought I should apologize. In addition, could you come to the ward office tomorrow? Because I have something to discuss.

“All right. What time can I go?”

-Are you okay early in the morning?

“yes. Then, can we go around 9:00?”

-yes. of course. Then I’ll see you at that time. Once again, I apologize for what happened today.

“no. Then go in.”

The call is over.

Junyoung smiled across his face while holding his smartphone.

‘The money comes in tomorrow?’

For him, who has been unemployed for a long time, it is like a sweet rain from a drought.

‘It’s good because it’s fast.’

It is said that the reason for giving hunters a national subsidy like a monthly pension is to prevent the outflow of hunter manpower abroad at the national level.

This is because most countries, not just Korea, are giving state subsidies to hunters.

In other words, if patriotism is emphasized without such special treatment, hunters who emigrate to foreign countries will inevitably appear one after another.

‘I heard that if I emigrate later, I’ll have to vomit all the government subsidy I’ve received?’

But if you don’t intend to immigrate, you don’t have to worry.

Joonyoung intends to receive everything he gives.

‘I have to go to the ward office tomorrow, so I’m going to bed early today.’

Of course, I should eat more Chimaek and sleep.

* * *

[Your daily mission has been updated.]

[Your level has increased, and the daily mission rewards have increased.]

“Hmm?”

Surprised by the sudden sound of a notification, Junyoung opened his eyes.

12:00 at night.

It seems that the daily mission is updated exactly after midnight.

If this notification goes off every time, I will keep waking up in my sleep.

‘Turn off daily mission update notifications.’

[Notification will be omitted when daily mission is renewed.]

Fortunately, there was a feature to turn off notifications.

From tomorrow on, I won’t wake up because of this.

‘I think he said that the compensation was higher than that?”

Junyoung, who was going to sleep right away, summoned the daily mission window just in case.

【Daily Mission】

– 400 won reward per vampire when slaughtered

– Reward limit: 100 animals

-Today’s Vampire Massacre: 0/100

【Account balance of 0 won】

‘uh?’

I thought I saw it wrong, but no.

The compensation amount has increased from 100 won to 400 won.

“what?”

He was awake and jumped up.

The compensation limit remains the same at 100 animals, but the reward is 400 won per dog, so it is a whopping 40,000 won per day.

Surprisingly, the daily mission rewards have quadrupled compared to yesterday.

‘It’s because the level went up and the rewards increased.’

Of course, the limit doesn’t seem to be updated every time the level goes up.

It is probably updated after midnight every day, and the reward limit is determined according to the level at that time.

‘It’s like the amount of compensation increases by 100 won for each level.’

If this continues, the higher the level, the higher the daily mission reward may be as a main income rather than a side income.

‘Anyway, my body feels refreshed.’

I ate chicken and beer and fell asleep around 10 o’clock, so it’s only less than two hours of sleep.

Even so, the body is light.

Something unimaginable before.

After becoming an awakened person, there really is no new world.

‘Now that I’m awake, should I think I’m exercising and grab some mosquitoes?’

100 sounds like a lot, but to him it’s no big deal.

With the ability to detect bloodsuckers, you can figure out where the mosquitoes are like a ghost.

‘There’s not even one in the house.’

It is natural.

This is because he spread the mana mosquito net all over before going to sleep.

Now at level 4, a mana mosquito net lasts for 4 hours at a fixed location such as a front door or window.

Since it can be stacked 2 times, you can spread a mana mosquito net that lasts 8 hours in total by consuming 2 mana points.

‘Let’s finish it simply and come back.’

I put on my training clothes and sneakers and opened the front door.

Found 3 mosquitoes hanging out in front of the front door!

Papapat!

The moment Junyoung’s hand stirred the space.

‘Kiak!’

‘Kyaa!’

‘Quack!’

The guys fall down in a heap with a distinctive grotesque sound.

[I got 400 won.]

[I got 400 won.]

[I got 400 won.]

Light notifications that sound at the same time.

sound of money coming in

Is there any other sound like this in the world?

‘There are more bloodsuckers than I thought.’

As the level increases, the ability to detect bloodsuckers also increases.

Perhaps that’s why the detection radius is much longer than when it was at level 1.

Not only mosquitoes, but also sand flies, bloodsucking ticks, and strange bugs that do not know the name can not escape Junyoung’s senses if they are bloodsucking things.

[The daily mission has been completed.]

[You can no longer receive rewards today.]

‘It’s over.’

Completed in about 10 minutes!

-Today’s Vampire Massacre: 100/100

【Account balance of 40,000 won】

I can’t wait for 12 noon tomorrow.

happy worries (2)

Ugh! Ugh!

Joon-young woke up to the sound of text notifications on his smartphone ringing one after another.

Yesterday, after having a chicken and beer party with my family in the evening to celebrate Hunter, I fell asleep and woke up at midnight to the daily mission update notification, and I grabbed 100 vampires and came in.

Then I fell asleep again and woke up now.

‘I slept well.’

I definitely feel that my stamina has improved every time I wake up.

Originally, it is still time to sleep for a long time, and when I wake up unexpectedly like now, I feel tired and annoyed.

But now I feel very refreshed.

‘The condition of the body is also very good. This is why Awakeners are Awoken.’

Junyoung checked the text messages on his smartphone with a hearty smile.

‘What is this?’

What kind of money is it all of a sudden?

There is 1.8 million won in the account that should have been only 10,000 won, exactly 10,043 won.

His head tilted momentarily, but Junyoung soon remembered what Hunter’s management manager, Kwak Sang-woo, said last night.

‘They said the money would be deposited today, so did they come in this morning?’

Officials say the work is slow, but it doesn’t seem to be a Hunter-related department.

‘Really.’

Checking the e-mail that came in the night, the relevant statement was attached.

F-class hunter national subsidy of 1 million won.

And 800,000 won is the reward for the gate mission to the Children’s Grand Park yesterday.

‘It’s an F grade, but they give you 800,000 won per day?’

Joon-young was surprised.

I know that the government subsidy is already 1 million won per month, so there is nothing to be surprised about.

‘I heard that an F-class hunter is about 300,000 won per day if they cooperate with the gate mission managed by the local government.’

It’s not always set that way, it’s just that that’s usually the average.

This is what I found through an internet search.

However, there is an additional $50,000 coming in.

‘Yesterday, while apologizing, they said that they would give additional risk allowances, so that seems to be the case.’

A smile bloomed on Junyoung’s lips.

To be honest, I didn’t really feel that I had become a hunter, but when the money came in, I felt it through my skin.

‘Am I finally able to earn money like everyone else?’

For Jun-young, who always had to live unemployed at home due to poor physical strength, it is very emotional.

＜Honey, can our Junyoung live on his own? I’m worried that I won’t be able to get a job because my physical strength is so low, and I’m worried if I’ll be able to get married later…＞

“Let’s still have hope! Either way, he’s a guy who’s doing his part. If it doesn’t work, we should just take care of it for the rest of our lives…＞

A few years ago, I overheard my parents’ conversation by chance.

He pretended not to hear, but it is something that Jun-yeong will never forget.

A child whose independence is impossible and whose parents must take care of them for the rest of their lives.

That was Junyoung.

Although he already knew, the fact that he was such an existence to his parents came to him very sadly.

I wanted to deny it, but it’s an unavoidable reality.

‘But not now.’

In the meantime, if you have been a burden and a burden for your family, from now on you will become a self-reliant existence.

‘What should I do with my family’s presents?’

Since I received an amount similar to my first salary, I plan to give presents to my parents as well as my younger siblings.

‘What are you buying? This is also a concern.’

Of course, it’s a happy worry.

Junyoung, who was unemployed until yesterday morning, could not imagine that he would think about what kind of gift to buy for his family in just one day.

‘Take it slow and think about it. Let’s get ready to go to the ward office.’

* * *

“Welcome, Hunter Kang Joon-young!”

9 am sharp.

When Jun-yeong goes to the Hunter Management Division of the district office, Ahn So-young greets him with a bright smile.

As if everyone was listening, he emphasized ‘Hunter-sama’, but it doesn’t make me feel bad.

“Come over here. The manager is waiting for you.”

“yes.”

Upon entering the office, Kwak Sang-woo is seen.

“Welcome, Kang Joon-young. I was waiting anyway. Sit over here.”

He has a friendly smile, but he looks pretty tired, so he must have spent the night here.

Well, it’s understandable since the gate to the Children’s Grand Park was in a mess yesterday.

The pronoun of going to work and leaving work is a civil servant, but it does not apply to the Hunter Management Department.

“First of all, as promised yesterday, the government subsidies and gate mission rewards were deposited in the morning.”

“Yes, I checked too. Thank you for the quick turnaround.”

“Thank you. It’s definitely a job you have to do. Oh, and hunters have a variety of benefits that surpass those of national merit in addition to state subsidies by the Hunter Special Act. For example, tax is completely exempted when purchasing a car or electric vehicle with an engine displacement of 3,000cc or less. Fuel and charging costs are also partially subsidized. Even in housing subscription, it is also applicable to the top priority special supply. There are many other things, but Ahn So-young will guide you through the details.”

There was something like that.

I only thought about receiving the state subsidy, but I didn’t know that there was such an additional benefit.
