Ring!

The alarm went off on Joo Min-Seong’s cell phone. It was a call from a friend who had been close and had awakened to his abilities first.

Hey. I heard you’re the FFF-class. What should I do? I can’t have a party with you.

Ring!

FFF-class… HAHAHA! Don’t contact me! LOL! Class F is on the move!

Ring!

FFF-class building owner? Just be a normal person! LOL

Ring!

Hey! Won’t you broadcast with me at a grade F gate?

Ring!

Min-Seong. FFF-class is a bit too much. Take care~

Regardless of the gender, all the personal connections he had built had been destroyed. That was not enough to make a mockery of him.

Ring! Ring! Ring!

“Ahhhhh!”

The people he had known for a long time, who he thought were his friends, had given up on him. Joo Min-Seong threw his phone away roughly.

“Yap!”

For some reason, though, his body was much heavier than usual and his strength was also lacking. He felt weaker.

‘Everyone’s gone. All because of my class?’

All the connections he had made with constant effort over the years were nothing but a sham. Those he thought were his friends just tapped the calculator and weighed the value of an awakened man.

“What the hell is a building owner even capable of… Phew. Let’s calm down for now.”

Joo Min-Seong calmly thought about the situation that befell him.

‘The grade was FFF, but I don’t know exactly what I’m capable of.’

FFF-level Awakened Person Joo Min-Seong  Capacity: Building owner Details: Unknown. 

Joo Min-Seong noted that his abilities were not detailed.

Unknown details appeared very occasionally in the process of Awakening. The solution was simple yet difficult. You could pay more and get a closer, more accurate examination.

The problem is that the amount was so grossly expensive.

‘I’m not paying for the test for S-classes…’

Therefore, since he was not an S-class or higher, he should use his skills to get a sense of it. At one time, being a building owner was such a dream title that people would joke that building owners were above the universal creator himself. But even then, Joo Min-Seong did not let go of that thin strand of hope.

‘Let’s go to the gate. One way or another, if I can discover what I can do… At least if I have a little power to get back at them…! If only I could somehow grow up!’

On that day, small flames of revenge bloomed in Joo Min-Seong’s heart.

“Even if it’s crawling, I will get my revenge.’

His only option was the F-level gate. It would have been different if he had a high leveled companion, but there was no human network left for Joo Min-Seong. Also, he was a soloist, which made the situation even more dangerous. He had to be fully prepared before the expedition.

Joo Min-Seong picked up his phone and, after blocking his entire address book, checked the balance left on his account.

The balance is 3,216,400 won. Deposit (Awakened Association Guro District Branch) 3,000,000 Won. ¹

“Ha. Only three million won…”

Only 3 million won for selling his face and abilities worldwide. Moreover, because of the contract, he couldn’t even remember the face and name of the person to aim his revenge on. He just knew it was someone from the association.

It was also impossible to deal with the entire association. He clearly had no chance. He’d be stopped right at the entrance by a security guard.

‘One day. One day, surely.’

It may be possible if he asked a successful foreign guild to make money. Or if the ability to be a building owner turned out to be great. 

After imagining the distant future, Joo Min-Seong left the house.

“Huh?”

The house was crowded with reporters.

“Joo Min-Seong! Can I interview you for a moment?”

“How does it feel to be the world’s first FFF-class Awakened!”

“Please tell us how you’re feeling!”

“Just look this way once!”

‘I’m doomed. They’re really…’

“Mr. Joo Min-Seong! Where are you going? Wait a minute!”

“Get out of my way!”

Joo Min-Seong succeeded in shaking off the reporters by running away. But, for some reason, he lost his stamina and was quickly out of breath.

“Huck… Huck…”

‘This is a shopping mall in the public district, so it should be all right.’

Joo Min-Seong’s hopes crumbled to dust with a little boy’s cry.

“Mom! He was on TV!”

“Shh! Don’t look at me! Do you want to be an FFF class?”

“Argh!”

It was different from what he had imagined, but he had already become a celebrity. Ignoring the buzz around him, he quietly withdrew money to prepare for the gate trip.

 ‘I only bought tents, food, and weapons, but I already don’t have any money left.’

Despite choosing the cheapest items possible, the gate expedition permit was very expensive and most of the leftover money flew away in a flash.

“Pfft! Thank you, sir.”

Even as he walked out of the last store, ignoring ridicule, the attention of the people had been steady.

“Mr. Joo Min-Seong! Please take a picture with me! Is it okay to post it on social media?”

“Don’t take pictures.”

“Oh, my God. You’re FFF and you’re so famous. When I awaken, my class will be higher than yours.”

The man’s words were true. Joo Min-Seong was the first FFF-class, and the lowest rank to date had been F.

‘You didn’t earn 50 million won, but you’re bluffing.’

Ignoring the grumpy man with the cell phone by his side, Joo Min-Seong stopped a taxi and got on board quickly.

“Huh? Aren’t you the bachelor from over there? Are you going to kill yourself? Would it be okay to go to the Han River?”

A small TV in the cab was also showing Joo Min-Seong’s face. It seemed natural for the taxi driver that he’d want to kill himself from embarrassment.

“… to the class F gate.”

“I get it. You have the money, right?”

“… yes.”

He wanted to get out of the taxi right away and spit on him, but he was surrounded by spectators. The only option was to run away.

‘No one’s ever been FFF, but it’s this bad. I didn’t expect to be ignored…’

After a brief taste of the horrible reality, Joo Min-Seong shook his head and gathered his mind.

‘There is no doubt about it. I can’t even go back to being a normal person like this. If I must die, I’d rather die at the gate.’

The taxi driver talked endlessly all the way to the gate, but Joo Min-Seong thoroughly ignored him

“We’re here!”

“Here’s my card.”

“For such a young person to be dying like this. Tsk, tsk.”

The taxi driver completely treated Joo Min-Seong as a suicide aspirant.

“Here. The payment is finished.”

Joo Min-Seong received his card back and left the taxi without a goodbye.

‘I feel heavy. That’s the gate…’

The F-class gate that few people could access. The air around it was strange.

‘They said the priority should be to report to the security office.’

The gate-related information he had heard from the people he thought were his friends before was rather useful. Rather, there was a chance he may have betrayed their expectations. Joo Min-Seong erased his thoughts and silently headed to the security room next to the gate entrance.

“Hmm?”

There was a small message before his eyes for a moment.
