Ranked 98th in the Draft, his coach had told him that he was ranked 98th in the Draft, barely within the professional world.
“It was probably okay to do it laxly in high school since it’s against high schoolers but pros are different. You are the weakest entity here. Most players in the professional world, even pitchers can hit home runs against you balls.”
That you were the professional world’s weakest.
“There’s no answer for you even if you do your best with that power. That’s why, use your head if you want to survive. Research more than others, analyze and contemplate. Find out the best pitch you can throw against the batter.”
That, the only way you can survive is by using your head.
“Especially if you think that there’s something fishy, dig into it. That’s the only crack you can crawl through.”
That I should react strongly to any change or sensation.
Of course, Jung Hyun-woo had ignored that advice at first.
I am different!
I will show a different figure in the professional world!
I will break everyone’s expectations and enter the Major League!
I had thrown the balls with my all while having such determination.
The conclusion was what everyone had expected.
“See, what did I tell you? Didn’t I tell you, you were the weakest here?”
Jung Hyun-woo only realized how trivial of an existence he was after getting beaten harshly by not the main team, but their opponent’s reserve team and was thus removed from even the reserve team, only then taking the coach’s words to heart.
If there was something off, he would not let it pass but research, analyze, and contemplate.
It was the same now.
‘It’s not my imagination. I can really see the information on the cards.’
At the situation that Jung Hyun-woo didn’t even imagine in his dreams, he strived to understand his situation rather than begin to panic.
He continuously went through the character selection process to see exactly what kind of situation he was in.
‘There’s no telling if what I’m seeing is real but,’
He would only be able to know once he selected a card and confirmed it.
‘If it indeed is real…….’
If it were to be real then what should he do?
Jung Hyun-woo meticulously pondered what would come after.
‘Since a problem with my body has occurred, should I consult a doctor?’
Either way, a problem with his body had definitely occurred and Jung Hyun-woo didn’t have the slightest bit of clue as to what it was nor knew what to do with it.
The natural consultant would be a doctor.
‘If I were to consult, it would be one of two.’
‘The one in charge of me would either become a neurology department or psychiatry department.’
One would be where they treated Jung Hyun-woo as a mental person.
‘Or, they would acknowledge my ability and go into “treatment”.’
The other one was where they would understand the situation that happened to Jung Hyun-woo and try to find a cure to it.
‘There’s nothing good.’
If he was treated as mentally unstable then he wouldn’t be able to get a proper job and in the latter case, he would end up as an experiment subject.
‘What’s certain is that I won’t be able to play God Wars again once this ability is known. Most of the players would try to prevent me from playing it by using the law.’
God Wars was that kind of game.
‘There’s no way the original players would allow a guy with such abilities to play the same game together.’
It was like a masterpiece that couldn’t be left out of human civilization.
A place where a large number of men and women of power and wealth, and fame built strongholds befitting the current era.
They couldn’t allow a mutant to descend on that stage.
There were many instances.
‘Some were even PKed just because it was a legendary job one couldn’t get even after trying thousands of times’
The chance of winning a lottery was miniscule but there would always be one.
The random job selection that is one of God Wars systems is nonsensical to most but some end up becoming the lucky ones.
Also, a part of them show off their good luck.
However, the result of their showing off is usually miserable.
There were many cases where they were PKed just because they had a job that was difficult to get and there were quite a few that had to delete their characters because progress became impossible.
‘They would have fun looking at it too.’
Some were using this absurd, depraving method as an opportunity to eat popcorn.
‘Whether I die this way or that way, only I need to know about it if I want to play.’
In such a world, there was nothing good about letting the world know about oneself.
On top of that, this was basically a cheat.
Was it okay to see a profit with such a dishonest method?
Wouldn’t it pierce one’s conscience?
A cheat to the point that it would cause such questions to pop up.
‘Hye-rin, uncle will buy you pretty clothes.”
He had no such conscience within his mind.
‘Well then, should I go get that job?’

The moment Jung Hyun-woo heard that message, he turned his head to look at the 1,000 cards in front of him.
The cards that all looked the same.
However, they were different in Jung Hyun-woo’s eyes.
‘They’re different from the color.’
For now, the color of each card was different in Jung Hyun-woo’s eyes.
There were cards that shone yellow among the cards without color and there were a few cards emitting red light.
‘The ones without color are of normal rarity, the yellow ones are rare, and the red ones are uniques.’
However, Jung Hyun-woo’s line of sight went to a single place.
‘The golden light is legendary.’
The legendary golden card.
Only one card among the 1,000 cards in front of him took Jung Hyun-woo’s attention.
Moreover, it wasn’t just one.
‘Ah, Archmage!’
Archmage.
It was a job that could utilize all magic in God Wars as the price of serving the War Dragon.
Currently, there were only 9 types of Legendary classes and it was the class among them that Jung Hyun-woo wanted.
‘Finally!’
It was the job that came out after attempting character creation for the 19th time.
At that fact, Jung Hyun-woo unconsciously made a slight smile.
‘To come out in 19 tries.’

It’s often said so, that mathematicians didn’t buy lottery tickets.
It’s because although normal people know that the chance of winning is low, they don’t know exactly how low it is but mathematicians know that it’s low to the point that it’s unproductive to even try and buy one.
Right now, Jung Hyun-woo’s case was like that.
He knew that it was difficult to obtain a Legendary class.
‘It really is a trash game.’
It was beyond anyone’s imagination that they could look at the rarity of the classes in this way.
‘Certainly, that’s why they receive such treatment.’
This was also why Jung Hyun-woo wanted the Archmage job.
‘Just by having the Archmage job, the treatment would be different.’
Damage dealing, excluding super star level melee attackers, were mostly done by ranged attackers such as magicians and archers in God Wars and the treatment for useful magicians was not bad because of this.
The problem was that most magicians could only learn magic of a single attribute.
Because of this, no matter how skilled, in a battle against a monster with high fire resistance, there would be no choice but for a fire magician to be left out.
However, there was no such restriction for Archmages.
‘Since all attributes could be learned.’
The characteristic of an Archmage was that one could learn all magic!
‘They can be make an appearance in all contents.’
That meant that it was possible to attend in Contents Business, that was the main business with battle at the core, at any time.
That was the main point.
An actor that could appear in any movie was much more valuable than an actor that couldn’t be used in an important film after investment.
It was easier to gain popularity.
‘There’s an overflowing value in investing.’
Even if it wasn’t so, it was enough of an issue as it was a legendary class.
‘Azumo said so as well.’
The one that made the Archmage popular was none other than the player to first get the Archmage job, Azumo.
As a Prince of Arabia, he had over 10 trillion won of private assets and he who had been the group owner as a pro gamer immediately invested a massive amount of money to get the Archmage job the moment God Wars came out.
After splurging a total of 10 billion won, he was finally able to succeed in getting the Archmage job.
In the process, he said this despite the fact that he had gotten several other legendary class jobs.
‘This job is the one that makes me feel like I used the money well.’
That the Archmage class was the only class worth investing in.
Of course, if it was put differently, it meant that it was a job that needed investment on the level of even Azumo using some money.
‘That is the reason why the nickname attached to him is the money eating hippopotamus.’
When Jung Hyun-woo arrived at that fact, he momentarily pondered.
‘…… Should I pick something else?’
A serious contemplation, however, he didn’t ponder for that long.
‘Well, I can just make a new one if I don’t like it.’
After a bit of pondering, Jung Hyun-woo picked that card.
[You have become an Archmage.]
He could hear the message and at the same time, the status window appeared once more.
– Level : 1
– Faith : War Dragon
– Job : Archmage
– Stats : Strength (5) / Endurance (5) / Intelligence (5) / Magic Power (5)
The changed status window entered his eye.
Also, a message could be heard.
‘It’s the tutorial I see.’
It was the moment the first phase of the game began.
3.
The light that filled Jung Hyun-woo’s, now Midas’, eyes started disappearing together with the message.
After that light disappeared, a space of about 100 pyeong (330
“Cool, the thirtieth person is here.”
29 players could be seen who filled the interior of the room.
Just that, the people there didn’t place much interest in Midas’ appearance.
“Everyone came right?”
“Now the tutorial starts!”
What they were interested in was the tutorial that would start with Midas’ appearance.
It wasn’t that difficult.
Like every other game, God Wars had a tutorial stage for those that first start.
If 30 people gather, they would be presented to a stage full of monsters where they would be able to experience monsters without death penalties.
“Damn, for the game to start after dying once mandatorily.”
“This game is a trash game I tell you.”
The experience they spoke of here was usually death.
God Wars was an RPG game where level rose through hunting monsters.
The experience they get flustered by the most when first playing the game is the experience of getting killed by monsters after all.
“Now then, let’s quickly die.”
“We have to start the game quickly after dying.”
Of course, a part of the ones here were those that had already experienced dying numerous times and those people had no thoughts on surviving for long.
Midas was the same.
He was also planning on giving himself to the monsters the moment the tutorial started.
[A new quest has been added to the Quest window.]
‘There’s no need to waste time in the tutorial.’
He was planning on starting the real game after dying quickly.
‘Hm?’
He was definitely planning on doing so.
– Quest Rank : None
– Quest Information : Survive against the orcs that appear on the field.
! Quest Reward : Tutorial Master title will be given if you survive for over 71 minutes
! Tutorial Master Title Reward : Rune (All Stats +10)
‘I can see the quest’s hidden rewards as well?’
He had been planning on doing the same as the others before seeing the black words on the Quest window in front of his eyes.
