I Became a Disaster-Class Sorcery Genius

Genius (Physical) (1)

There is a proverb in this world.

If you keep trying, one day the sun will rise.

Kim Dojun believed that this saying was not wrong at all.

Because his life fit this proverb perfectly.

In his childhood, during an incident called a "Dungeon Break" where monsters burst out of dungeons, he lost both his parents and had to live as an orphan.

Afterward, when he grew older and became an adult, he awakened a power that no one particularly desired, but unfortunately, his life did not change dramatically.

The power he awakened was the common physical enhancement ability awakened by a whopping 50% of hunters.

In terms of rank, it meant he had awakened an F-rank ability.

But Kim Dojun worked hard.

He worked to succeed with his F-rank ability.

He poured in several times more effort than others.

He raided several times more dungeons.

He went through several times more training.

Almost as if to show the world that he was the definition of a tough guy, Kim Dojun worked like a madman.

And after 10 years.

He eventually reached a position where he was rewarded for all that effort.

Even with just the physical enhancement ability, which 50% of all hunters possessed, he was set to reach the number one spot in the Korean hunter rankings the following week.

All the hunters with similarly common abilities praised him as 'the hope of F-rank'.

Even the S-rank hunters, guilds, and associations who had previously looked down on Kim Dojun now lowered their heads to scout him.

This was precisely one day ago.

At the end of a life filled with hardship and effort, a new dawn finally arrived for Kim Dojun; all that was left for him was to enjoy it.

That's why.

That's why Kim Dojun allowed himself a week off, taking a break from the training he'd been doing persistently for ten years.

Thinking that it was okay to rest a little since he'd worked non-stop until now, he spent a week holed up at home playing games.

Of course, he didn't take time off just to play games.

It was just that, as he was lazily resting, he came across a game title that he used to enjoy before he became a hunter.

Remembering that he had never seen the ending ten years ago, he started playing the nostalgic game, and before he knew it, a week had passed.

Here was the problem.

"Shit, did the protagonist's parents die or something? What kind of crap ending is this?"

After spending a week to see the ending of the nostalgic game, he found that the ending was terrible.

Kim Dojun stared blankly at the TV screen, which showed the world in ruin with the phrase 【Could even the greater spirits not stop it...?】, and then shifted his gaze to the game case at his feet.

【Sorcery Killing Technique】

A somewhat typical RPG game where you raise the protagonist to the strongest sorcerer and stop the destruction of the world.

However, he recalled that the game had received praise for employing the element of curse sorcery, differentiating it from other RPGs.

He searched for more information on his smartphone.

'... There's no info?'

He was bemused to discover that he couldn't find any information about the game online.

But soon, he found the answer in the mini-booklet that had come with the game.

'It's a multi-ending game.'

A multi-ending game.

Confirming that the ending could change depending on player actions, Kim Dojun clicked his tongue without realizing it.

'I just played however I felt like, and ended up with the bad ending.'

Looking at the ruined world on the TV screen, Kim Dojun considered replaying the game, but soon shook his head and put the controller down.

He'd allotted himself only a week off.

He no longer had time to spend playing games.

'Besides.'

Starting tomorrow, he would be debuting as the number one ranked hunter in Korea, so he had to go to bed early.

Dojun would be entering the true prime of his life starting tomorrow, and there was a lot he needed to do.

'First, I'll clock the association president who looked down on me right in the face, then mess with the guilds that abused their power over me, and after that—'

Just thinking about these plans made him unconsciously smile as he lay down to greet the next day early.

He was ready to greet the prime of his life.

... Yes, he should have been ready to enjoy his prime.

"Number 772! To the test room!"

"?"

The next day, Kim Dojun woke up brimming with excitement at the thought of decking the association president—but realized he wasn't at home.

【Stop the world's destruction and reach the ending of 'Sorcery Killing Method.'】

The system window that soon appeared before his eyes.

"What the hell is this shit?"

He couldn't help but blurt it out.

Hmm, a hard working, albeit ill-mannered protag?
Also, sorcery here leans on curse techniques...
