YM778.TV Chapter 3: Infinite Money Glitch
At that moment, he looked down at his leg. Ever since Kim Hoon had broken it, he always had to limp. It didn\'t heal right because it wasn\'t looked after properly.
When his leg was first broken, no one gave him any first aid, and by the time he made it to the hospital, it was too late.
On top of that, YuWon had little money because he had just been kicked out of the house. He couldn\'t stay in the hospital for long and had to work to feed himself.
Because of all these things, his leg never healed properly, making it hard for him to move quickly. Just thinking about those incidents made his blood boil.
Calm down. Now is not the time for this.
YuWon reminded himself and looked at the clock. He had another three minutes to prepare to deal with the goblin. Wanting to kill the damned creature, YuWon opened his stats and considered his options while preparing the metal bar.
He did not know what luck, wisdom, and intelligence did. But he was familiar with strength, agility, defense, and endurance. Unaware of the Goblin\'s stats, there wasn\'t much for YuWon to go by.
But even then, he knew his stats were probably the worst within the college. He couldn\'t run, he couldn\'t take over two hits, and the only thing he could depend on was his strength.
Just then, he noticed a blinking icon next to his attributes. YuWon wondered what it was and clicked it. The moment he did that, another screen popped up before him.
[You have 10 unallocated attribute points.]
[How would you like to use them?]
A moment later, a \'+\' appeared next to his attributes. Without thinking, YuWon pressed the icon next to strength, dumping all ten points into it and suddenly, he felt his muscle grow bigger.
YuWon\'s oversized clothes did a good job concealing his body, but he wasn\'t the same skinny guy anymore.
"Woah... this feels like a dream," YuWon muttered, looking at his once lost athletic body.
With everything done, YuWon positioned himself behind the door, waiting for the goblin to appear. A moment later, the bell rang, and the explosion followed as usual.
Soon the goblin appeared on the terrace, ready to hunt its prey. YuWon jumped, yelling as he brought down the metal bar onto the creature\'s head. The metal bar broke the goblin\'s head in half with a sickening crunch, killing the darn thing instantly.

Notifications flooded YuWon\'s vision, but he didn\'t care. For a moment, YuWon allowed himself to celebrate. He turned his back to the entrance, looking at the sky as all the adrenaline slowly disappeared from his body.
"Maybe I can survive this after all," YuWon mumbled, smiling.
Unfortunately, his celebration was short-lived. In his celebration, he had committed a grave mistake by turning his back to the terrace entrance. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw another goblin charging at him. He tried to react, but his reaction time was too slow.
Before he knew it, two goblins latched onto him. YuWon pushed one of them away, but the other plunged its dagger into his side.
"Fuck, not again!" YuWon yelled.
He tried grabbing the second goblin, but the one he had pushed away stabbed the dagger into YuWon\'s leg, making him fall. As he fell, he saw the goblins sneering at him as they stabbed him in the chest. Just like that, YuWon\'s vision faded to black once more.
***
When he opened his eyes, he was back on the terrace. The familiar screen congratulated him for choosing the Revenant class.
"Fucking hell!" YuWon groaned in frustration, flopping down.
But instead of dwelling on it, he once again opened up his attribute page. His death, while unpleasant, made him realize something. Dumping all the points into strength was stupid of him.
He died because of his low agility and negligence. While he could be vigilant this time around, he still needed to add some points to increase his agility.
But would it even matter?
YuWon thought, staring at his leg. Since his leg was broken, would he benefit from investing any points in agility?
I won\'t know the answer unless I take the leap.
His father often told him this whenever he felt scared or worried. That saying had pushed him so far, but now, remembering those words felt bittersweet.
After all, he was about to give it all up for a stupid reason and even worse people. But not anymore.
YuWon quickly brought his strength and agility to ten points each before dumping the remaining points to upgrade his endurance and defense to four. The distribution wasn\'t perfect, but it was better than nothing.
With that done, he waited behind the door again, ready for the goblins to appear. The first goblin appeared, and YuWon repeated his earlier strategy, getting rid of the goblin with ease.
Similar prompts flashed before his eyes, but YuWon didn\'t celebrate. Instead, he kept his eyes on the entrance, knowing another goblin could appear at any moment.
He didn\'t have to wait for long as the goblins came charging towards the terrace. One goblin launched itself towards YuWon\'s head. He ducked to avoid a blow to his head, surprised that his leg didn\'t hurt at all. He could move and run like before.
"Thank you, attribute points," YuWon muttered in disbelief.
With him distracted, the other goblin charged at him. However, YuWon noticed it and swung his metal bar like a baseball bat, hitting the disgusting creature in the face. The goblin was sent flying to the far end of the terrace. It won\'t be any trouble for now.
Upon seeing its comrade flying away, the first goblin rushed and stabbed YuWon in the feet. YuWon winced in pain, but it was tolerable, unlike before, and it was all thanks to the points he had added to his defense and endurance stats.
"I\'m not going down this time, you bastard!" YuWon growled, stabbing the goblin with the metal bar.
The goblin screeched loudly before collapsing, dead.
"Keek! KEEEK!"
The goblin YuWon had hit the home run on came charging right back at him. But he no longer feared them. As soon as the creature got close enough, YuWon kicked it in the face, dislocating its jaw.
The goblin took a few steps back, its jaw hanging loosely on its green-skinned face. It tried fixing it by awkwardly pushing the jaw back in place, but it kept falling.
"Need a hand with that?" YuWon taunted.
He watched as the goblin fumbled with its dangling jaw and kept taunting it. Angered, the goblin forgot about the jaw and rushed at YuWon. But he was ready.
Instead of fighting it head-on, YuWon just sidestepped and stuck his foot out. Blinded by rage, the goblin didn\'t notice it and tripped. Its momentum carried it forward, hitting the railing and toppling off the terrace.
The goblin kept flailing its arms in the air and couldn\'t even scream with its dislocated jaw. After a few seconds, YuWon heard a faint thud as the goblin hit the ground far below.

"Wait a minute!"
While going through the notifications, YuWon noticed something interesting. He still had the exp and gold he had gained from defeating the goblin the first time, and when he killed the first goblin again, he got the same amount of experience points and gold.
"…infinite money glitch!?"
