Chapter 6 – Equivalent Exchange (6)
A question that comes to mind naturally when I am alone.
Why?
All the answers to the feast of ‘why?’ Were dormant in this body’s memory.
I took a slow look at why I decided to change my body and the process of making up my mind.
“This isn’t complete nonsense.”
I couldn’t help but curse at that bastard.
I wanted to take it away because my body is my wife, Han Joo-hee’s husband.
Only to do this and that with my wife.
Haha.”
At first, it felt like blood was pumping backwards.
How dare you go after my wife?! I was thinking of going to him and trying to grab him by the collar.
That’s not right.
“Status window.”
[Status window]
Name: Kim Dojin
Gender: Male
Age: 20
Height/Weight: 160cm/120kg
[Muscle: 5] [Stamina: 2] [Agility: 2] [Magic power: 1]
Characteristic:
[The transaction made by Equivalent Attribute Exchange is active.]
Mutual Inviolability [2022.06.09]~[2025.12.31]
Prohibition of disclosure [2022.06.09]~[2025.12.31]
“Scent….”
From different points of view, different parts are spectacles.
The first thing to notice is age, height/weight.
“Twenty.”
An age where dead dreams and hopes seem to swell even if you say it out loud.
Even though it was a forced exchange, I really liked the fact that I entered the body of a 20-year-old.
Although I am concerned about the short height of 160cm and 120kg and the ridiculous weight, there are no solutions, so let’s move on for now.
The second spectacle is ability.
A miserable ability that did not exceed double digits even one.
“It has 1 mana, so that’s what it sounds like….”
It is correct to start at 1 unless magical power is originally related to magic.
No, other things can be tolerated somehow.
Except for one thing, stamina.
“How on earth do I have 2 stamina….”
After a long life as a hunter, living in nature, the image of a hunter nearing his death came to mind.
That nobleman is like an uncle who taught me a lot of things since I was young, so I went to see him on the way, and he said that at that time.
When it was time to die, the stamina stat became 1.
Given that this guy’s health is 2, wouldn’t it be a hint that if he lived like this, he would die soon?
“Great, great.”
I feel like I want to applaud him if he is in front of me.
I was born with a healthy body without any major pain or strange parts, and I lost my stamina to this point with a dog-like life pattern of only eating, sleeping, and playing games!
Could this be recognized as an achievement?
“What’s surprising is that this was just an appetizer.”
The real thing is the traits and the nonsensical trade terms lined up under them.
The SSS-class ability that took my entire body disappeared.
“It’s the first time I’ve ever seen an empty attribute column.”
You’re an Awakener with no traits.
Aren’t they literally steamed buns without red beans, empty gangjeong, and crab without eggs?
“Why did this bastard abandon his SSS-class attributes and take my body?”
I know, it’s because of my wife.
Still, I don’t quite understand.
“It’s true that my wife is pretty, but she’s not as tidy as this….”
Joohee Han.
She is a really pretty and talented woman.
Innate beauty, vast magic power, and steady management.
It is true that she is at a level comparable to that of a beautiful woman in her 20s, even though she is in her mid-40s with all three elements.
That’s right….
Who is prettier than her because of her cool talk? Many.
There are quite a few in Korea, and there are more if you look around the world.
“Hyaa, with SSS-level abilities, I think it would have been possible to rank first in the world hunter rankings.”
While those with only S-class characteristics are fighting fiercely for the top spot, an SSS-class ability appears?
Even if you grow a little, wouldn’t it be possible to finish the order in an instant?
If that happens, all the beauties in the world will rush to see your face.
I refused everything and stole my body for a woman named Han Joo-hee.
“Should this be recognized as pure love?”
Pure love is a bitch.
Even if it seems affectionate, it is disgusting, and I cannot erase the thought that the original owner of this body is a two-headed man.
“It must have been that I didn’t think much of it because my field of vision was narrowed.”
Anyway, it’s sad and pitiful.
If the SSS-class characteristics had remained intact, within just five years, the Yankee Hunter, who is currently holding the world’s No.
Anyway.
I was worried that I would have to live with no characteristics like this, but fortunately that wasn’t the case.
It was so strange that the attribute box was empty, so I touched it, and a strange message came to mind one after another.
[Excessive trade was established while the ability was not fully settled in the body.]
[The attribute has been removed due to the stark separation between the soul and body.]
[Explore new characteristics that suit the user.]
[Any future actions may significantly affect trait discovery.]
[Time remaining: ?]
In a word, this guy’s body and soul will change and he will find a new characteristic, so wait, that’s it.
In addition to that, my characteristics may change depending on my actions in the future, so be careful.
Given that the remaining time is displayed as ‘?’, You don’t know how long you have to wait.
I’ll have to wait and see if I have enough time.
There was a time when I was forced to do so.
Because of the transaction conditions written at the bottom of the status window!
“You’re meticulous in strange places, son.”
Mutual Inviolability and Non-Disclosure.
In a word, don’t think about coming to see him, and don’t brag about changing your body to others.
I want to see what will happen if I ignore it, so I have to visit it once, and as soon as I made up my mind, the message came to my mind.
[Mutual inviolability conditions are active.]
[If you encounter it with a clear intention, it is considered a breach of contract.]
[If you violate this, you will die.]
[If you come across it by chance, it is recommended that you pass by without pretending to know.]
Simple, clear, and scary.
You’re saying that the moment you go after him, he’ll kill you.
Even if you run into them by chance, don’t pretend to know them and pass them by.
“Your mouth is straight.”
All of this happened because of my words to him.
I just wanted to give courage to a young man who seemed to have low self-esteem at first glance, wondering what it would be like if he suddenly changed his body.
So he told me that my youth is much more valuable than my body, and that became the root of the problem.
Because of those words, my body was less valuable than this guy, and he was able to put up a series of ridiculous conditions to make up for the difference.
“I have to live in this body for at least three years….”
It’s 3 years at least.
Even that was just the moment when the terms of the deal were released, so it’s correct to see it as the time it takes before you can talk to him face-to-face.
“Hmm.”
I feel strange.
It is a body that has been forcibly taken away and placed in it.
I should be sorry
“Oh, why do you keep smiling?”
I can’t erase the smile that blooms on my lips!
“Uhehehehe!”
It’s just that there are no documents left on the original body, there are so many things that shouldn’t be done.
Since he was no different from the Hunter icon, he had to act politely wherever he went.
But can you be free at home? Not even that.
Even if you only bare your top, they scratch at you in a disrespectful way.
It’s the same as laughing lightly like now.
They must have pecked at me like crazy, saying that I should have the dignity and manners befitting the upper class.
“Oh really. I don’t want to live in a body like this.”
A body with no advantages other than being 20 years old.
To live with such a pitiful body that is insanely fat and out of breath when walking even a little bit!
Haha, I can’t help it. A contract is a contract….”
If I meet you, I will kill you. What can I do?
I just have to endure it and live with it.
“Twenty years old.”
The stories of the S-class hunters who lived opposite to me caught my ears.
What’s wrong with living according to your desires?
“No, yes.”
The world where living expressing desire is a sin has long since passed.
I have to admit that I have to admit
The reason I hated them was because I was envious of them who enjoyed the things I couldn’t do to the fullest.
I hated them because I didn’t want to admit that even if I died soon, I felt pitiful when I came back from the dungeon and sat alone at the wide dining table.
However, now things have changed.
Unlike the old body, which had only small desires such as ‘what if?’, This body was literally infested with all sorts of desires.
But it doesn’t matter.
You don’t have to block that desire any longer, considering it filthy.
Why?
“Because this body has neither a wife nor a daughter!”
Aren’t you worried about your wife or daughter, who will end up living with a man with a different mind? Yeah, don’t worry
My wife who hasn’t let me touch her for 7 years, and my daughter who avoids meeting me.
The two of them will be busy pushing them away, not even knowing that their insides have changed.
“Devil.”
I feel pity for the guy who suddenly took my body.
They must have decided to change their bodies because of how we acted as a parakeet couple in public.
What about this
“You should have figured it out by now.”
Our couple is a couple that is difficult to even have a conversation with each other in a day.
Are you screaming or screaming?
Either way it doesn’t matter.
“Because I’ve already done it.”
I know it’s no use
I saw them cry in front of two women, and I earnestly asked for them.
But the seeds didn’t even work.
Rather, they were scolded for calling them bad people in that way.
I express my feelings honestly.
“Come to think of it, I should call him him, not him.”
Many responsibilities and obligations hidden behind an aging body and the name of popularity.
A life that gets so much attention that even if you spit on the wrong side of the road, you will immediately be featured in a news article.
For he took it all and gave me youth and freedom.
“Thank you, Son Si-woo.”
I guessed the direction where our house was and made a big bow with a heavy body.
“Please have a good time. Don’t miss the past I will pray a lot.”
I just wish
Such a life, guy… , No, I hope it’s a life that fits his constitution.
Perhaps because of the absurd experience, my eyes started to close.
As Son Si-woo, all I can think of is until tonight.
After my eyes were completely closed and I fell asleep, I greeted tomorrow morning.
“I am Dojin Kim… , I am Dojin Kim….”
I will live under the name Kim Do-jin.
I’m going to throw away all the pretense of pretending to be nice.
A life that serves others will not even be given to dogs, it will be thrown in the trash.
I will enjoy everything I want to do and want, and I will live by satisfying all my desires.
“Damn.”
Why do you shed tears when you are determined to start a new life?
One last time, I want to see the faces of my wife and my daughter.
What do you want to see the hard-nosed women in the middle of making a new start?
I don’t know my heart either.
From now on, I’m going to try to figure it out properly with this body.
So, rapidly, sleep… , Went in….
