Wouldn't the world take corrective measures if Jee-Han ends up starting a war? That seems like it'd be stirring the pot too much.

That's only if the war starts interfering with normal people I think.

Really, I expect him to turn out to be immune to that rule. That, or for the rule to be relaxed as the author finds it inconvenient.

Maybe he can toggle it off in the options menu.

He's been creating extremely rare items from half-assed training that is always under conditions that minimize risk. Imagine if he sets out to farm or picks up +item rate stuff.

Yeah, look at the 'observe' for the hammer - Rank : A Little Special. It's pretty much a garbage green item barely above vendor trash to his videogame ability.

I didn't think about it, but his observe skill is probably outrageous - he can outright tell what magical items do. It'd make scamming him a lot harder than someone else. Sae-Young could tell it was magical, but I doubt she has the ability to say exactly what it does.

It's an outstanding combat ability, and I'm sure appraisers would kill for it, too. I'd imagine he has to level it for it to be useful on higher level items, but that's just a matter of putting in the effort. And that's not even mentioning he can use it on people, which is totally loving broken. :haw:

Just recently discovered this Manhwa, first impression: I think premise-wise it's appealing enough, but I don't like the pacing. Sometimes it's either too fast or too slow, though this series in general has tendency for the latter. Good and fun series though. I like the protag as well, and I'm looking forward for more appearance about the red head girls.

Thanks for posting this thread, this manwah is awesome. I just had a read through the untranslated chapter 31 and the translator made a mistake in the price of the hammer, sae-young noona offered jee-han 10,000,000 won not 1,000,000.

10,000,000 Won comes out to about $9655 USD. Was the original amount in words or numbers? I'm not really sure how a mistake like that would make it through.

Conversion for reference.

Probably more likely that the typesetter made a typo that did not get caught.

In the korean version it's written as 1000 만 which is 1000 X 10,000 and that equals 10,000,000.

edit: just to make sure i wasn't being stupid i chucked it in google translate and it's definitely 10,000,000 won.

If you're tired of waiting for bapscans, some low-quality group translated last week's Gamer chapter.

These guys also got ahead of turnip-farmers by a couple chapters in Kingdom. I think they're jumping on popular series to draw attention to their site.

They also have 23 translated, but holy poo poo are these scans awful. Untranslated side dialogue, typos everywhere, weird romanization of names, etc. But, hey, it's better than nothing!

It's nice to finally see (23) actual conflict. Will Jee-Han actually be able to do something about this situation? He doesn't seem to have any sort of non-lethal attacks that could defeat someone without killing them, especially because getting knocked unconscious isn't really a thing in MMOs. Maybe he could challenge them to a PVP duel?

Probably it just learned something from an infected ad report. I don't allow ads on free manga sites because whatever adlists they use are lovely. Like they try to remove them as fast as possible but the only virus I've had in over a decade came from an infected ad on mangastream.

Well poo poo, something finally happened.

No way in hell sick girl's dad isn't going to intervene though. And now that sick girl actually knows that Jee-Han can heal her, there's similarly no way that plot arc isn't going to draw to a close soon. We might even see flame fist girl!

Why yes, Jee-Han is the only name I can remember. :shobon:

Kissmanga's quality may be lower but it's not like I can actually tell the difference.

Not necessarily, who knows what kind of freaky divination powers are out there. Jeehan's "Examine" is bullshit powerful... sure "The Gamer" is a really strong powerset, but that's after like a couple weeks of training. It's entirely possible other people who have been training for years/decades (centuries?) could have comparable divination abilities, possibly even without needing visual contact.

Outside of JeeHan's ability though it seems like everyone else have powers following the more common 'fantasy' or 'fighter' path. I get the feeling he has the potential to be the most OP character in this universe.

Speaking of his abilities, I'm a bit disappointed in the technique he came up with. Using a rope to bind someone? Seriously, you have infinite possibility in front of you and that's all you can come up with? Dude, come on!

As soon as he tries to copy a skill he saw in Diablo 3, a GM suddenly appears and tells him he cannot recreate copyrighted abilities. After consulting with an IP lawyer, he changes the color, name, and other minor aspects of the ability until the GM doesn't appear; unfortunately, he spends too much time researching the law and is too under leveled to fight off the next set of kidnappers.
