I, Kim Jin-seo, was good with my hands.
I realized this in my childhood.
After much deliberation over several paths, I decided on one: Seonggong.
I've encountered a lot of things to get here.
The piece I'm trying to do now is one of them.
'It's happening! It's happening!'
The clay, moderately moistened, was smooth.
There, letters are carved with a carving knife.
The home was slowly being dug up.
It continues with a certain depth, width, and length.
A very thin, fine letter.
The moment when those letters come together to form one sentence!
Hwaaaaak!
The sentences engraved into the clay emitted a blue light.
>>
[Stat imprinting successful!]
[Clay evolves into an enchantment item!]
[Skill experience increases.]
>>
The clay that passed through my hands changed.
It went from being an ordinary 3,000 won coin to a one-of-a-kind item.
"Oh, right."
It feels strange.
This ticklish and overwhelming feeling.
I was able to feel these emotions again.
"What the... really?"
When I first crafted a beautiful jewel.
At that time, I shared this joy with my family.
It is a joy that I now feel alone.
I wiped away the tears that were forming in my eyes.
This is not the time.
"Item Appraisal."
Anyone can handle it once they awaken and become a hunter.
The ability to view information about an item.
As I put that in my mouth, information appeared in front of the clay.

[Strength-boosting clay (enchantment)]
Grade: F
Description: When attached to a piece of equipment or body of your choice, it permanently increases the stats as long a s the clay does not fall off.
Effect: Strength stat +0.01 ]
>>
"Haha! That's it! That's it!"
I ran around holding the clay.
As expected, my skills haven't rusted.
His prime skills will never go away.
The aftereffects of the accident were just a suppressant.
Didn't you do it like this when it disappeared?
"Huh! Huh!"
I've been running so much that I'm already out of breath.
That fucking 'immutability'.
It was nothing short of the worst curse.
'I have to find a way to overcome this.'
You can't stay at stat 1 your whole life.
We have to overcome this penalty by any means necessary.
I thought the answer was here.
'Enchant. If you use this, you will find a breakthrough.'
The ultimate enchantment that even ignores constancy!
Wouldn't a similar skill be unlocked?
So the answer is skill training.
'I'm making money while working.'
Anyway, my life goal is to escape poverty and accumulate wealth.
Then, wouldn't my younger sister Heejin be able to have a fulfilling school life like other kids?
"So I can't rest."
I stared at the clay.
A guy who was reborn from an ordinary consumable into a one-of-a-kind item.
There is still endless potential for development.
I decided on this.
"Congratulations on becoming my glorious number one product."
A lucky charm that might bring you a fortune overnight.
I kissed it so hard that clay got all over my lips.
"Eight, phew phew!"
I rubbed the clay and sat down.
Now I've engraved one.
There's still a lot of space left in the clay.
As it was my first attempt, I failed to engrave it at 0.1mm.
Character width is about 0.3mm.
'The clay's width, length, and height are approximately 20X30X2.'
The length and width of the sentence that goes into the stat engraving are 3X1.
This is the result of engraving at 0.3mm.
If we can reduce it to 0.1, the size will be about 3 times smaller.
The goal has been set.
'Let's reduce it as much as possible while increasing the level of completion. We'll carve at least 300 of them.'
It can be done easily.
But that's not what I wanted.
As the hand healed, the dead spirit of craftsmanship also came back to life.
My body and head screamed at the same time.
They say to give up efficiency and focus on perfection.
"I will do that."
He chuckled and picked up the carving knife again.
It's the second round.
This time it's going to be a very long and quiet fight.
I will not stop until this clay is filled with engraved characters.
"Whoa!"
I let out the breath I had been holding.
This is the final engraving work.
I put all my effort into putting that period on.
I opened my eyes wide, held my breath, and kept my body's tremors to a minimum.
I was quite pleased with the results.
Hwaaaaak!
Clay that emits a brilliant blue light as if trying to hide its own brown body.
Its former appearance cannot be found.
Light flows out wherever my hands touch.
"There is no more room to carve now."
There is no unengraved part on the front, back, or sides.
The clay was packed with engraved characters.
"hmm?"
That was the moment.
As the light from the clay faded, a notification appeared before me.
>>
[Imprinted the clay of strength enhancement to its limit!]
[Enchantment items change!]
[Perfect Rebirth! Additional effects are created!]
[Skill experience points increase significantly!]
>>
It's a pleasant notification that appears one after another.
However, there was no news about the skill level.
'Even if it goes up in large quantities, it's still a long way to go.'
As expected, it is an EX-level skill.
This is just out of the question.
'It's just the beginning anyway.'
You can't get full on the first drink.
But looking at the clay, I feel really full. This gave me confidence.
This makes money.

[Clay of Power Explosion (Enchant)]
Grade: C
Description: When attached to a piece of equipment or body of your choice, it permanently increases the stats as long as the clay does not fall off.
Effect: Strength stat +3
Additional Effect: When you burst the clay, it creates an area that increases your Strength stat by 5 for 5 minutes.
>>
It was an explosion of improvement.
That makes sense.
Training is essential for a hunter to increase his stats.
You have to push yourself to your limits.
Lift the barbell until your muscles tear, and run until your lungs burst.
You may experience stress so severe that it makes your head spin.
One of the stats that you work so hard to raise.
Precious. A stat that is so sweet that it cannot be described in words. 1.
It increases explosively by 3 without any conditions, just by attaching clay.
Is there really a hunter who would turn this down?
"No way."
I was sure.
It's not a confidence that comes from experience.
All information obtained through video media flooding NewTube.
Based on this, I was only able to estimate it.
'So now we have to check the liver.'
There is no need to go out and sell things.
It was time to use one of the privileges of an awakened hunter.
